In Vitro

Cetylpyridinium chloride monohydrate (7.5-50 µg/mL, 5 minutes) disrupts the influenza viral envelope in a dose-dependent manner, leading to structural damage, increased membrane permeability, and nucleoprotein release[2].
Cetylpyridinium chloride monohydrate (10-250 µg/mL, 48 hours) exhibits dose-dependent cytotoxicity in MDCK cells, with a CC50 of 96 µg/mL[2].

Cell Cytotoxicity Assay[2]

Cell Line: Madin-Darby Canine Kidney (MDCK) cells
Concentration: 10-250 µg/mL
Incubation Time: 10 minutes at room temperature, followed by 48 hours incubation at 37°C
Result: Led to a decrease in cell viability as the concentration increased. The 50% cytotoxic concentration (CC50) was 96 µg/mL.
In Vivo

Cetylpyridinium chloride monohydrate (5 µL of 0.1% Cetylpyridinium chloride monohydrate, p.o., twice daily for 5 days) enhances survival and reduces influenza-associated morbidity and mortality in C57BL/6 mice infected with mouse-adapted Influenza A (PR8 strain)[2].

In Vivo:

Select the appropriate dissolution method based on your experimental animal and administration route.

For the following dissolution methods, please ensure to first prepare a clear stock solution using an In Vitro approach and then sequentially add co-solvents:
To ensure reliable experimental results, the clarified stock solution can be appropriately stored based on storage conditions. As for the working solution for in vivo experiments, it is recommended to prepare freshly and use it on the same day.
The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.

  • Protocol 1

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    40% PEG300    5% Tween-80    45% Saline

    Solubility: ≥ 2 mg/mL (5.59 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (20.0 mg/mL) to 400 μL PEG300, and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 and mix evenly; then add 450 μL Saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL.

    Preparation of Saline: Dissolve 0.9 g sodium chloride in ddH₂O and dilute to 100 mL to obtain a clear Saline solution.
  • Protocol 2

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)

    Solubility: ≥ 2 mg/mL (5.59 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (20.0 mg/mL) to 900 μL 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline, and mix evenly.

    Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C, storage for one week): 2 g SBE-β-CD powder is dissolved in 10 mL Saline, completely dissolve until clear.

For the following dissolution methods, please prepare the working solution directly. It is recommended to prepare fresh solutions and use them promptly within a short period of time.
The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
