Clear solution
5%DMSO 40%PEG300 5%Tween80 50%ddH2O
1.7mg/ml Taking the 1 mL working solution as an example, add 50 μL of 34 mg/ml clarified DMSO stock solution to 400 μL of PEG300, mix evenly to clarify it; add 50 μL of Tween80 to the above system, mix evenly to clarify; then continue to add 500 μL of ddH2O to adjust the volume to 1 mL. The mixed solution should be used immediately for optimal results. 
Clear solution
5% DMSO 95% Corn oil
0.34mg/ml Taking the 1 mL working solution as an example, add 50 μL of 6.8 mg/ml clear DMSO stock solution to 950 μL of corn oil and mix evenly. The mixed solution should be used immediately for optimal results. 
* <1 mg/ml means slightly soluble or insoluble.
* Please note that Selleck tests the solubility of all compounds in-house, and the actual solubility may differ slightly from published values. This is normal and is due to slight batch-to-batch variations.
* Room temperature shipping (Stability testing shows this product can be shipped without any cooling measures.)

Biological Activity

Description Gallic acid (3,4,5-Trihydroxybenzoic acid, Gallate, Benzoic acid), known as powerful antioxidants, is an organic acid found in a variety of foods and herbs.
In vitro Gallic acid does not protect against H(2)O(2)-induced PC12 cell death. It reduced the viability of PC12 cells in a dose-dependent manner. Gallic acid also induces cleavage of poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase, which is strongly related to apoptosis in neurons. Gallic acid induces the phosphorylation of c-Jun N-terminal protein kinase (JNK) and the downregulation of Bcl-2 in PC12 cells. Gallic acid leads to a progressive reduction in the viability of vector-transfected PC12 cells, which is delayed in PC12 cells that overexpressed Bcl-2[2].
In vivo Gallic acid effectively protects rat erythrocytes. The antioxidant effect of the compound at the tested dosage in vivo was more prevalent than its prooxidative effects. Gallic acid has ameliorative effect on lipid peroxidation in vivo[1].

Protocol (from reference)

Cell Assay:[2]
  • Cell lines

    PC12 cells

  • Concentrations

    25 or 50 μM

  • Incubation Time

    24 h

  • Method

    Cell viability is measured using the MTT assay. PC12 cells are incubated at 37◦C with H2O2 or gallic acid at different concentrations for 24 h with or without pretreatment with resveratrol. They are then treated with the MTT solution (final concentration, 1 mg/mL) for 2 h. The dark-blue formazan crystals that formed in intact cells are dissolved in DMSO, and the absorbance at 570 nm is measured using a micro-ELISA reader.

Animal Study:[1]
  • Animal Models

    Male Wistar rats

  • Dosages

    10 mg/kg and 20 mg/kg

  • Administration
