Biological Activity

Description	Sodium Ascorbate (Sodium Vitamin C) is a more bioavailable form of vitamin C that is an alternative to taking ascorbic acid as a supplement.

In vitro
In vitro	Sodium ascorbate has a growth inhibiting action only at high concentrations in cultured human neoplastic cell lines MCF-7 (breast carcinoma), KB (oral epidermoid carcinoma), and AN3-CA (endometrial adenocarcinoma). Sodium ascorbate combined with vitamin K3 demonstrates a synergistic inhibition of cell growth at 10 to 50 times lower concentrations in cultured human neoplastic cell lines MCF-7, KB, and AN3-CA, at this level separately given vitamins are not toxic. This tumor cell growth inhibitory effect is completely suppressed by the addition of catalase to the culture medium containing vitamins C and K3, suggesting an excessive production of hydrogen peroxide as being implied in mechanisms responsible for the above-mentioned effects. ^[1] Sodium ascorbate combined with vitamin K3 results in a synergistic effect on growth inhibition in cultured human endometrial adenocarcinoma (AN3CA) cells. ^[2] Sodium ascorbate results in a rapid increase in the intracellular concentration of Ca²⁺ ions and subsequent apoptotic cell death in HL-60 cells, characterized by cell shrinkage, nuclear fragmentation and cleavage of internucleosomal DNA to yield fragments that are multiples of 180-200 base pairs, are induced. ^[3] Sodium ascorbate (100 μM) induces DNA single-strand breaks in human cells, Fibroblasts and Molt-4 cells are significantly more sensitive than lymphocytes. Sodium ascorbate (50 μM) results in significant cell loss in Molt-4 cells, but not in lymphocyte and fibroblast cultures. ^[4]

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.
