| In vivo | Flumethasone (0.5 mg/100 kg b.w.) reduces insulin-dependent glucose utilization in calves at 24 hours after treatment. [1] Flumethasone combined with sodium ceftiofur reduces the mortality rate in calves with severe acute bronchopneumonia and their clinical and haematological parameters returns to normal significantly faster than in the control calves. [2] Flumethasone (5 mg) has a significant effect on recovery of uterine disease in cattle with ketosis. Flumethasone (5 mg) increases plasma glucose concentration and decreases serum beta-hydroxybutyric acid and urine acetoacetate concentrations following treatment in cattle with ketosis. [3] The Flumethasone level in the treated animals is generally above the detection limit although, in most cases, the concentration of Flumethasone is lower than the corresponding glucocorticoid level in the dexamethasone-exposed calves. Flumethasone is also detectable in the accompanying urine samples in calves. Flumethasone binds to plasma transcortin, and it becomes active when it is not bound to transcortin. [4] |

Bio Calculators
Molarity Calculator
Calculate the mass, volume or concentration required for a solution. The Selleck molarity calculator is based on the following equation:
Mass (g) = Concentration (mol/L) × Volume (L) × Molecular Weight (g/mol)
*When preparing stock solutions, please always use the batch-specific molecular weight of the product found on the via label and MSDS / COA (available on product pages).
Dilution Calculator
Calculate the dilution required to prepare a stock solution. The Selleck dilution calculator is based on the following equation:
Concentration (start) x Volume (start) = Concentration (final) x Volume (final)
This equation is commonly abbreviated as: C1V1 = C2V2 ( Input Output )
* When preparing stock solutions always use the batch-specific molecular weight of the product found on the vial label and MSDS / COA (available online).

Definitions of molecular mass, molecular weight, molar mass and molar weight:
Molecular mass (molecular weight) is the mass of one molecule of a substance and is expressed in the unified atomic mass units (u). (1 u is equal to 1/12 the mass of one atom of carbon-12)
Molar mass (molar weight) is the mass of one mole of a substance and is expressed in g/mol.
