Description of Phenethyl isothiocyanate

Phenethyl isothiocyanate (PEITC) is an isothiocyanate that has been found in cruciferous vegetables and has anticancer activity.1 It inhibits the activity of glutathione peroxidase (GPX), reduces cellular glutathione (GSH) levels, and induces the accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in T72 ovarian epithelial cells expressing H-RasV12 when used at a concentration of 10 µM.2 PEITC (10 µM) induces cell cycle arrest at the G2/M phase and apoptosis in PL45, MIA PaCa-2, and BxPC-3 pancreatic cancer cells.3 It decreases the number of tumor cells expressing Ki-67 or proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA), markers of cell proliferation, and reduces tumor growth in a MIA PaCa-2 mouse xenograft model.

In vivo Formulation Calculator (Clear solution) of Phenethyl isothiocyanate

Step 1: Enter information below (Recommended: An additional animal making an allowance for loss during the experiment)

mg/kg g μL

Step 2: Enter the in vivo formulation (This is only the calculator, not formulation. Please contact us first if there is no in vivo formulation at the solubility Section.)

% DMSO % % Tween 80 % ddH2O
%DMSO %

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 ddH2O, 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.
