Description of Prohexadione

Prohexadione is a plant growth regulator.1 It inhibits the gibberellin plant hormone biosynthesis enzyme 3β-hydroxylase when used at concentrations of 0.1, 1, and 10 mM. It reduces the shoot length of peanut plants when applied at 0.5, 1.5, and 4.5 kg/hectare. Prohexadione also inhibits jumonji domain-containing 2A (JMJD2A) demethylase when used at a concentration of 1 mM and induces the differentiation of mouse neurospheres into neurons at 1, 1.5, and 2 mM.2 Formulations containing prohexadione have been used as plant growth regulators in agriculture.

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.
