ProtocolIn VitroTasimelteon (BMS-214778) has 2.1-4.4 times greater affinity for the MT2 receptor believed to mediate circadian rhythm phase-shifting (Ki=0.0692 nM and Ki=0.17 nM in NIH-3T3 and CHO-K1 cells, respectively), than for the MT1 receptor (Ki=0.304 nM and Ki=0.35 nM, respectively). Tasimelteon has no appreciable affinity for more than 160 other pharmacologically relevant receptors and several enzymes

Calculation Results:
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 add µL PEG300, mix and clarify, next add µL Tween 80,mix and clarify, next add µL ddH2O,mix and clarify.
Note:
  • (1) Please be sure that the solution is clear before the addition of next solvent. Dissolution methods like vortex, ultrasound or warming and heat may be used to aid dissolving.
  • (2) Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order.
