Product Introduction

Bioactivity
Description
WST-8 is a water-soluble tetrazolium dye, and WST-8-based assays have higher sensitivity than traditional MTS-based assays.
In vitro
METHODS: A commonly used MTS-based assay was compared to a bioassay using the water-soluble tetrazolium dye WST-8 at a concentration of 7 × 10(5) cells/ml with 800 IU/ml PEGylated G-CSF at 24, 48, 72, and 72 h time points to determine the efficacy of PEGylated G-CSF. In addition, the optimized WST-8 dye-based assay was used to test the potency of various commercially available PEGylated G-CSF formulations.
RESULTS The results demonstrated that the WST-8-based assay had greater sensitivity in determining the potency of PEGylated G-CSF using the NFS-60 cell line compared to the conventional MTS-based assay.[1]

In Vivo Formulation Calculator (Clear solution)

Please enter your animal experiment information in the following box and click Calculate to obtain the mother liquor preparation method and in vivo formula preparation method:
TargetMol | Animal experimentsFor example, your dosage is 10 mg/kg Each animal weighs 20 g, and the dosage volume is 100 μL . TargetMol | Animal experiments A total of 10 animals were administered, and the formula you used is 5% TargetMol | reagent DMSO+30% PEG300+5% Tween 80+60% ddH2O. So your working solution concentration is 2 mg/mL。
Mother liquor preparation method: 2 mg of drug dissolved in 50 μL DMSOTargetMol | reagent (mother liquor concentration of 40 mg/mL), if you need to configure a concentration that exceeds the solubility of the product, please contact us first.
Preparation method for in vivo formula: Take 50 μL DMSOTargetMol | reagent main solution, add 300 μLPEG300TargetMol | reagent mix well and clarify, then add 50 more μL Tween 80, mix well and clarify, then add 600 more μLddH2OTargetMol | reagent mix well and clarify
For Reference Only. Please develop an appropriate dissolution method based on your laboratory animals and route of administration.
