Working concentration: mg/ml;

Method for preparing DMSO master liquid: mg drug pre-dissolved in μL DMSO ( Master liquid concentration mg/mL, Please contact us first if the concentration exceeds the DMSO solubility of the batch of drug. )

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next addμL PEG300, mix and clarify, next addμL Tween 80, mix and clarify, next add μL ddH2O, mix and clarify.

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next add μL Corn oil, mix and clarify.

Note: 1. Please make sure the liquid is clear before adding the next solvent.
2. Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order. You must ensure that the solution obtained, in the previous addition, is a clear solution before proceeding to add the next solvent. Physical methods such
as vortex, ultrasound or hot water bath can be used to aid dissolving.

Mechanism of Action

In vitro
L-Ascorbyl 6-palmitate is a synthetic lipophilic ascorbic acid derivative. This compound is an effective preservative in foods and an effective dietary antitumor promoter in mice. Studies indicate that dietary this chemical is a source of tissue vitamin C in animals. Besides, dietary it possesses weak antiscorbutic activity in guinea pigs and enhances vitamin C nutriture in humans. [1]
In vivo
In a study, daily mean weight loss during repletion in control animals receiving placebo is significantly greater than that for L-Ascorbyl 6-palmitate animals for days 3–10 of repletion. Daily mean weight loss for this compound animals is significantly greater than that for L-ascorbic acid (AA) animals on days 5 and 6 of repletion. By comparing areas of the weight-time curve during repletion, this compound appeares to be about 50% as effective as L-ascorbic acid (AA) in reversing scurvy. [2]
