ProtocolIn VitroLipoic acid ((R)-(+)-α-Lipoic acid) is a form of human biosynthesis that is essential for aerobic metabolism. Lipoic acid ((R)-(+)-α-Lipoic acid) is the preferred form in nutrition and processing because of its "vitamin-like" effects in metabolism. Lipoic acid ((R)-(+)-α-Lipoic acid) and S-(-)-α- Lipoic acid) constitute the racemic mixture Lipoic acid. Only Lipoic acid (((R)-(+)-α-Lipoic acid) exists in nature and is an essential cofactor for the four mitochondrial enzyme complexes. Lipoic acid ((R)-(+)-α-Lipoic acid) is considered the preferred form of antioxidant for nutrition and processing

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.
