Methyl tridecanoate
Based on 1 Customer Validation
Methyl tridecanoate is a fatty acid methyl ester. Methyl tridecanoate exhibits an IC50 of 3.26 μM and a Ki of 2.30 μM against AsOBP21f in Anopheles sinensis. Methyl tridecanoate induces electroantennographic responses in female Anopheles sinensis. Methyl tridecanoate shows a dose-dependent attractive effect on Anopheles sinensis. Methyl tridecanoate weakly inhibits β-amyloid aggregation and AChE activity. Methyl tridecanoate can be used in the research of malaria and Alzheimer's disease.

Biological Activity
|
AChE |
Methyl tridecanoate (10-70 μM) binds tightly to the recombinant Anopheles sinensis AsOBP21f protein, with a Ki value of 2.3 μM[1].
Methyl tridecanoate exerts weak inhibitory effects on β-amyloid aggregation and acetylcholinesterase activity[2].

Solvent & Solubility
DMSO : ≥ 10 mg/mL (43.79 mM; Hygroscopic DMSO has a significant impact on the solubility of product, please use newly opened DMSO)
* "≥" means soluble, but saturation unknown.
Please refer to the solubility information to select the appropriate solvent. Once prepared, please aliquot and store the solution to prevent product inactivation from repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Storage method and period of stock solution: -80°C, 6 months; -20°C, 1 month. When stored at -80°C, please use it within 6 months. When stored at -20°C, please use it within 1 month.

Select the appropriate dissolution method based on your experimental animal and administration route.
- For the following dissolution methods, please ensure to first prepare a clear stock solution using an In Vitro approach and then sequentially add co-solvents:
- To ensure reliable experimental results, the clarified stock solution can be appropriately stored based on storage conditions. As for the working solution for In Vivo experiments, it is recommended to prepare freshly and use it on the same day.
- The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.
Add each solvent one by one: 10% DMSO 40% PEG300 5% Tween-80 45% Saline
Solubility: ≥ 5 mg/mL (21.89 mM); Clear solution
This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).
Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (50.0 mg/mL) to 400 μL PEG300, and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 and mix evenly; then add 450 μL Saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL.
Preparation of Saline: Dissolve 0.9 g sodium chloride in ddH₂O and dilute to 100 mL to obtain a clear Saline solution.
