Biological Activity

Dictamnine is a natural furoquinoline alkaloid exhibiting broad antimicrobial activity against various pathogenic bacterial and fungal species. Beyond its antimicrobial action, dictamnine displays significant cytotoxic potential against cancer cells by disrupting key survival pathways, triggering cell cycle arrest, and inducing apoptotic cell death. Furthermore, it exerts anti-inflammatory responses by downregulating key inflammatory mediators and cytokines.

Solubility

Batch:
All in vitro solubility values are batch-tested experimental data (non-literature values).
Solvent Solubility & Note
DMSO 33 mg/mL (165.65 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).
