Saline
30.0mg/ml Taking the 1 mL working solution as an example, add 30 mg of this product to 1 ml of physiological saline (0.9% NaCL solution), mix evenly to make it clear, 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 Homatropine Methylbromide is muscarinic AChR antagonist, inhibits endothelial and smooth muscle muscarinic receptors of WKY-E and SHR-E with IC50 of 162.5 nM and 170.3 nM, respectively.
Targets
mAChR (WKY-E) [1] mAChR (SHR-E) [1]
162.5 nM 170.3 nM
In vitro Homatropine (20 μM) alone produces a dose ratio of 259 in atrium from guinea-pigs. Homatropine (20 μM) produces a dose ratio of only 95.0 when combined with hexamethonium in atrium from guinea-pigs. [2] Homatropine has similar affinities for muscarinic receptors in stomach (pA2 = 7.13) and for those in atria mediating force (pA2 = 7.21) and rate (pA2 = 7.07) responses. [3]
In vivo Homatropine (20 mg/kg) prevents lethality in rats with dichlorvos poisoning with survive rate of 30% and time of death ranged between 4 and 12 minutes, while Homatropine (10 mg/kg) has no effect on preventing lethality. [4] Homatropine [14C]methylbromide administrated rectal achieves higher and rapid peak plasma concentrations than by the other routes in rats whether HMB-14C is administered in a water-soluble suppository base or in aqueous solution, retained 28% of the 14C has been excreted in the urine while 56% remained in the large intestine after 12 hours. Unlabelled Homatropine methylbromide, given in rectal suppositories to anaesthetized rats, causes prompt blockade of the effects of vagal stimulation on pulse rate and of intravenous acetylcholine on blood pressure.
