Ordering Information

Biological Activity

(+)-Delta-Tocopherol is an orally bioavailable, naturally occurring fat-soluble form of vitamin E that exhibits potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities. It scavenges reactive oxygen and nitrogen species, suppressing proinflammatory signaling mediated by NF-kB and MAPK pathways. Through these targeted mechanisms, (+)-Delta-Tocopherol inhibits cancer cell proliferation, attenuates oxidative stress, and promotes apoptotic pathways in various cellular models. [1]

Solubility

Batch:
All in vitro solubility values are batch-tested experimental data (non-literature values).
Solvent Solubility & Note
DMSO 81 mg/mL (201.16 mM)
(Moisture-contaminated DMSO may reduce solubility. Use fresh, anhydrous DMSO. The recommended stock concentration is 10 mM in DMSO.)
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).
