Description of Acamelin

Acamelin is a Benzofuranoquinone compound that acts as a contact sensitizer. It can be isolated from the heartwood of Acacia melanoxylon R. Br., an Australian blackwood. Acamelin induces positive skin reactions and contact allergy in guinea pigs. It is applicable to research related to allergic contact dermatitis [1] [2] [3] [4].

In Vivo, Acamelin (1% concentration; epicutaneous; single application) acts as a contact sensitizer in sensitized Pirbright white-strain guinea pigs, eliciting positive skin reactions in all tested animals, with slightly stronger and longer-lasting responses than 2,6-Dimethoxy-1,4-benzoquinone [1].

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 addμL PEG300, mix and clarify, next addμL Tween 80, mix and clarify, next add μL saline, mix and clarify.

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next add μL Corn oil, mix and clarify.

Note: 1. Please make sure the liquid is clear before adding the next solvent.
2. Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order. You must ensure that the solution obtained, in the previous addition, is a clear solution before proceeding to add the next solvent. Physical methods such as vortex, ultrasound or hot water bath can be used to aid dissolving.
3. All of the above co-solvents are available for purchase on the GlpBio website.
