Description Buparvaquone (BW 720C) is a hydroxynaphthoquinone antiprotozoal drug related to atovaquone and parvaquone.
In vitro Buparvaquone is significantly selective against L. (L.) infantum chagasi intracellular amastigotes, with an IC50 value of 1.5 μM. In 4-day proliferation assays, buparvaquone efficiently inhibits N.?caninum tachyzoite replication(IC50=4.9?nM; IC100=100?nM). Other cutaneous species are also susceptible to buparvaquone, with IC50 values in the range 1-4 μM.
In vivo Both a hydrous gel and a water-in-oil emulsion containing buparvaquone markedly decrease the cutaneous parasite load and lesion size compared to the untreated control. Administering buparvaquone (100 mg/kg) to N. caninum-infected mice, either through intraperitoneal injection or orally via gavage, effectively prevents neosporosis symptoms in a significant proportion of the subjects. Specifically, symptoms were prevented in four out of six mice in the group treated intraperitoneally and in six out of seven mice receiving oral treatment.
Cell Research To study whether pretreatment of host cells prior to invasion had any effect on parasite proliferation, confluent HFF grown in 6-well plates are treated with 1?μM buparvaquone in medium for 1?h or 5?h, and controls are exposed to the corresponding amounts of DMSO. Subsequently, the drug-containing medium is removed and monolayers are ished 4 times with Hank's Balanced Salt Solution, and are infected with Nc-Liv tachyzoites in 5?mL medium without any drug or solvent. After 2 days, cells are collected with a cell scraper, centrifuged, ished once more in PBS, and the pellet is stored at ?20?°C prior to quantification of N.?caninum proliferation by N.?caninum-specific real time PCR as outlined below.
Animal Research Mice: On day 0, all mice are infected by intraperitoneal (i.p.) injection of freshly purified N.?caninum tachyzoites. After 48?h, mice receive BPQ (100?mg/kg) as suspension in corn oil either by i.p. injection of a volume of 100?μl or by oral application of 100?μl by gavage. The control groups obtained the corresponding amount of the solvent only, either i.p. or orally. The treatments are performed 5 times on a daily basis. If not indicated otherwise, mice are inspected twice daily for clinical signs (ruffled coat, apathy, hind limb paralysis) until day 21 post infection (p.i.), at which time they are euthanized.

Molarity Calculator allows you to calculate the

  • Mass of a compound required to prepare a solution of known volume and concentration
  • Volume of solution required to dissolve a compound of known mass to a desired concentration
  • Concentration of a solution resulting from a known mass of compound in a specific volume
See Example

An example of a molarity calculation using the molarity calculator
What is the mass of compound required to make a 10 mM stock solution in 10 ml of water given that the molecular weight of the compound is 197.13 g/mol?
Enter 197.13 into the Molecular Weight (MW) box
Enter 10 into the Concentration box and select the correct unit (millimolar)
Enter 10 into the Volume box and select the correct unit (milliliter)
Press calculate
The answer of 19.713 mg appears in the Mass box

Calculate the dilution required to prepare a stock solution
The dilution calculator is a useful tool which allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentration. Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1.

See Example

An example of a dilution calculation using the Tocris dilution calculator
What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 20ml of a 50 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=50 μM, V2=20 ml and V1 is the unknown:
Enter 10 into the Concentration (start) box and select the correct unit (millimolar)
Enter 50 into the Concentration (final) box and select the correct unit (micromolar)
Enter 20 into the Volume (final) box and select the correct unit (milliliter)
Press calculate
The answer of 100 microliter (0.1 ml) appears in the Volume (start) box

Definitions of molecular mass, molecular weight, molar mass and molar weight:
Molecular mass (molecular weight) is the mass of one molecule of a substance and is expressed n the unified atomic mass units (u). (1 u is equal to 1/12 the mass of one atom of carbon-12)
Molar mass (molar weight) is the mass of one mole of a substance and is expressed in g/mol.
