General tips | We do not recommend long-term storage for the solution, please use it up soon. |
Cell experiment [1]: | |
Cell lines |
Chinese hamster ovary cell CHO |
Preparation method |
The solubility of this compound in DMSO is ≥9.6 mg/mL. General tips for obtaining a higher concentration: Please warm the tube at 37 ℃ for 10 minutes and/or shake it in the ultrasonic bath for a while. Stock solution can be stored below -20℃ for several months. |
Reacting condition |
25, 50, 100 and 200 μg/ml |
Applications |
In the absence of the S-9 mixture, as the concentration of nitrofurazone increased, the major trends of chromosomal gaps, breaks and swaps in CHO cells increased. The incidence of chromatid damage was also increased in cells treated with nitrofurazone, but there was no significant dose correlation. In the presence of a mixture of S-9, an increase in chromosomal damage was accompanied by an increase in the dose correlation of chromatid breaks and interchanges. |
Animal experiment [1]: | |
Animal models |
Male rats |
Dosage form |
40,120 and 400 mg/kg (administration by gavage) |
Application |
After nitrofurazone treatment, there was no evidence of any increase in the percentage of cell aberrations, the average number of chromosomal aberrations, or the number of animal abnormalities at any sampling time (single or five doses per day). |
Other notes |
Please test the solubility of all compounds indoor, and the actual solubility may slightly differ with the theoretical value. This is caused by an experimental system error and it is normal. |
