Ordering Information

Biological Activity

(-)-(S)-α-Terpineol is a natural monoterpene that exhibits anticholinergic and anti-inflammatory activities. It inhibits the binding interaction between prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) and GM1 ganglioside receptors while blocking cholera toxin action. By modulating cholinergic pathways and inflammatory mediator expression, it attenuates downstream signaling cascades and reduces toxin-induced cellular response.

Solvent Solubility & Note
FAQ
Q: Why does a DMSO stock precipitate in media/saline?
A: It is caused by unheated aqueous media (supersaturation), local solvent shock, or incorrect mixing sequence.
How to fix it?
  • Preheat media/saline to 37°C.
  • Mix rapidly (pipette/vortex) upon addition.
  • For complex mixes, always add the aqueous phase last.
  • Re-dissolve minor precipitates with a 37°C water bath and sonication (≤30 min).
