Asiaticoside B is a plant-derived triterpene glycoside that exhibits cytotoxic activity against cancer cells. In vitro studies demonstrate that asiaticoside B suppresses cell proliferation and impairs cellular survival in human hepatoma (HepG2) and breast adenocarcinoma (MCF-7) cell lines. These cytotoxic actions inhibit overall tumor cell growth and viability, supporting its potential utility as a small-molecule natural product in anti-cancer research. [1]

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).
