In Vitro

Hexyl gallates (Hexyl 3,4,5-trihydroxybenzoate) inhibits only Rhl-dependent production of rhamnolipid and pyocyanin by inhibiting RhlR, without affecting elastase production and biofilm formation which are regulated by the Las system.Hexyl gallates inhibits pigment production at 10-30 μM, but also exhibited antibacterial activity. Hexyl gallates also exhibits antibacterial activity against CV026 cells. Hexyl gallates inhibits only N-butanoyl homoserine lactone (BHL) production at 100 and 300 μM without affecting N-(3-oxododecanoyl)-l-homoserine lactone (OdDHL) and 2-heptyl-3-hydroxy-4(1 H) quinolone (PQS) production[1].
Hexyl gallates, an antimicrobial alternative to copper compounds, inhibits Xanthomonas citri growth in a dose-response manner, showing a more pronounced activity at the range of 30-50 μg/ml, and it targets the membrane of X. citri[3].

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: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (8.18 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (20.8 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: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (8.18 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (20.8 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.

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.
