| In vitro |
Daidzin, a glycoside of daidzein, increases the transcriptional activity of RARα and RARγ but does not bind to the RARs[1]. Daidzin does not inhibit human class Ⅰ, Ⅱ, or Ⅲ alcohol dehydrogenases, nor does it have any significant effect on biological systems that are known to be affected by other isoflavones. Daidzin inhibits human ALDH-I and ALDH-II in a concentration-dependent manner. Daidzin inhibits both ALDH-I and ALDH-II in an apparently competitive manner with Ki values of 40 nM and 20 μM, respectively, and it inhibits ALDH-I uncompetitively with respect to NAD+. The inhibition of ALDH-I by daidzin is reversible[3]. |

| In vivo | Daidzin has no effect on alcohol-metabolizing enzymes(i.e., ADH and ALDH) when given to rats intragastrically. Chronic daidzin administration exerts an effect on alcohol pharmacokinetics, although the effect is less pronounced than when the compound is administered concurrently with ethanol.The compound is shown to shorten sleep time if ethanol is given intragastrically, but not when given intraperitoneally, indicating absence of effect on ethanol elimination rate. Daidzin delays ethanol absorption and lessens alcohol intoxication. The compound is shown to suppress the levels of BAC(blood alcohol concentration) for the first 3 hr after alcohol ingestion in both fasted and fed rats. These effects of daidzin may in part be due to its antioxidant activity[2]. |

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.
