Clear solution
5% DMSO 95% Corn oil
0.5mg/ml Taking the 1 mL working solution as an example, add 50 μL of 10 mg/ml clear DMSO stock solution to 950 μL of corn oil and mix evenly. The mixed solution should be used immediately for optimal results. 
Clear solution
5%DMSO 40%PEG300 5%Tween80 50%ddH2O
4.0mg/ml Taking the 1 mL working solution as an example, add 50 μL of 80 mg/ml clarified DMSO stock solution to 400 μL of PEG300, mix evenly to clarify it; add 50 μL of Tween80 to the above system, mix evenly to clarify; then continue to add 500 μL of ddH2O to adjust the volume to 1 mL. The mixed solution should be used immediately for optimal results. 
* <1 mg/ml means slightly soluble or insoluble.
* Please note that Selleck tests the solubility of all compounds in-house, and the actual solubility may differ slightly from published values. This is normal and is due to slight batch-to-batch variations.
* Room temperature shipping (Stability testing shows this product can be shipped without any cooling measures.)

Biological Activity

Description Carprofen inhibits canine COX2 with IC50 of 30 nM.
Targets
canine COX2 [1]
30 nM
In vitro Carprofen (S and R stereoisomers) inhibits canine COX2 with IC50 of 0.102 microM for the racemic mixture, the inhibition is primarily attributable to the S enantiomer (IC50, 0.0371 microM), which is approximately 200-fold more potent than the R enantiomer (IC50, 5.97 microM). [1] Carprofen binds to human serum albumin (HSA) by both fluorescence and equilibrium dialysis (ED) methods is characterized by two sets of association constants [K1 = 5.1 μM (fluorescence) and 3.7 μM (ED), K2 = 37 μM (fluorescence) and 13 μM (ED)]. Carprofen primarily binds to site II, the benzodiazepine site, while the low affinity site of carprofen is site I, the warfarin site, the carboxyl group of carprofen is found to play an important role especially in the high affinity binding of carprofen to HSA. [2]
In vivo Carprofen preoperatively has lower pain scores than the other groups, significantly so at 2 hours postextubation in the dogs. Carprofen (4 mg/kg) results in significant higher maximum plasma concentration, the area under the curve to the last data point, and area under the first moment curve up to the last data point in dogs. [3] Carprofen (4 mg/kg) provides slightly better pain relief than pethidine and produced less sedation in dogs. Carprofen provides good analgesia during the 18 hours the dogs are in hospital and no adverse side effects are observed. [4] Carprofen substantially increases the speed of lame birds, providing evidence that birds with moderate lameness suffer pain when they walk. [5]
Features Potency of carprofen for canine COX2 is more than 100-fold greater relative to canine COX1.
