Description S-Methylisothiourea sulfate ((S)-Methylisothiourea sulfate) is a potent and selective inhibitor of iNOS and exerts beneficial effects in rodent models of septic shock[1].
In vitro S-Methylisothiourea sulfate is a competitive inhibitor of iNOS activity at the L-arginine site. The effect of S-Methylisothiourea sulfate on iNOS activity can be reversed by excess L-arginine in a concentration-dependent manner. S-Methylisothiourea sulfate (up to 1 mM) does not inhibit the activity of xanthine oxidase, diaphorase, lactate dehydrogenase, monoamine oxidase, catalase, cytochrome P450, or superoxide dismutase. S-Methylisothiourea sulfate prevents the NO-mediated cytotoxic effect of LPS in cultured macrophages. S-Methylisothiourea sulfate (100 nM-100 μM) exhibits inhibitory effects on LPS (ug/mL)-induced nitrite production in J774.2 macrophages and rat aortic vascular smooth muscle cells[1].
In vivo S-Methylisothiourea sulfate dose-dependently reverses (0.01-3 mg/kg) the hypotension and the vascular hyporeactivity to vasoconstrictor agents caused by endotoxin [bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS), 10 mg/kg, i.v.] in anesthetized rats. Moreover, therapeutic administration of S-Methylisothiourea sulfate (5 mg/kg, i.p., given 2 hr after LPS, 10 mg/kg, i.p.) attenuates the rises in plasma alanine and aspartate aminotransferases, bilirubin, and creatinine and also prevents hypocalcaemia when measured 6 hr after administration of LPS. S-Methylisothiourea sulfate (1 mg/kg, i.p.) improves 24-hr survival of mice treated with a high dose of LPS (60 mg/kg, i.p.)[1].
Animal Research S-Methylisothiourea sulfate (Male Wistar rats (260-320 g); 0.01 mg/kg, 0.1 mg/kg, 1 mg/kg, 3 mg/kg; Intravenous injection) caused a prompt restoration of the blood pressure to pre-LPS levels at 3 mg/kg dose in LPS (10 mg/kg, i.v.)-treated rats and also inhibited iNOS activity measured in homogenates of lung[1].

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
