Biological Activity

Description Albendazole is a member of the benzimidazole compounds used as a drug indicated for the treatment of a variety of worm infestations.
Targets
tubulin [1]
In vitro
In vitro Albendazole is reported to be teratogenic in rats, and is extensively metabolized to the sulfoxide derivative. Albendazole and its sulfoxide metabolite elicit an accumulation of cells in the mitotic phase of the cell cycle. [1]
In Vivo
In vivo Albendazole causes an induction of hepatic activities of CYP1A1-associated ethoxyresorufin O-deethylase (EROD) 65 fold, CYP1A2-associated methoxyresorufin O-demethylase (MROD) 6 fold, CYP2B1-associated penthoxyresorufin O-dealkylase (PROD) 4 fold, CYP2B2-associated benzyloxyresorufin O-dealkylase (BROD) 14 fold, as well as a partial reduction of CYP2E1-associated 4-nitrophenol hydroxylase (4-NPH) activity in the rat. [2] Albendazole is metabolized to its pharmacologically active sulfoxide metabolites by liver and lung microsomes from sheep and cattle, as well as by cattle intestinal microsomes. [3] Albendazole (ABZ) is a benzimidazole derivative with a broad spectrum of activity against human and animal helminthe parasites. [4] Albendazole and its metabolites are extensively distributed to the digestive tract, mainly into the abomasal fluid, after the i.v. and i.r. administrations. Albendazole and its active albendazole sulphoxide (ABZSO) metabolite are recovered in tapeworms collected from both i.v. and i.r. treated lambs. [5]

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.
