Biological Activity

Description	Retinyl (Vitamin A) Palmitate is a more stable, synthetic version of the essential nutrient vitamin A joined to palmitic acid.

In vitro
In vitro	The microencapsulation of vitamin A palmitate by gelatin-acacia complex is a promising method for converting an oily vitamin to solid powders for an aid to handling and ease of incorporation in preparations. ^[1]

In Vivo
In vivo	Vitamin A Palmitate (80 mg/kg daily p.o.) or (800 mg/kg once a week p.o.) dose-dependently decreases the size of papillomas in mice, the daily administration induces a somewhat higher extent of regression than the weekly application if the total doses are compared. Water miscible solutions of Vitamin A Palmitate as well as of Vitamin A acid given by the oral route elicit the same effect on papillomas. ^[2] Vitamin A Palmitate (A single simultaneous injection of 150 g) enhances cell-mediated immunity to sheep red blood cells(SRBC) as early as 3 days following immunization, and the enhancement persists for at least 3 weeks. ^[3]

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.
