Product Description
Dermaseptin is a bioactive peptide extracted from frog skin that displays effective antimicrobial effect against bacteria, fungi and protozoa.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vitro
At micromolar concentrations, the water-soluble, heat-stable, non-hemolytic peptide dermaseptin exhibits strong antimicrobial activity against pathogenic fungi. Dermaseptin's 80% α-helical conformation is indicated by its circular dichroism spectra in hydrophobic media. Secondary structure predictions show that dermaseptin can be configured as an amphipathic α-helix that spans residues 1–27. This perturbation-regulated water structure of the membrane regulates flux. 1]. At micromolar concentrations, dermaseptin has a lytic effect on filamentous fungi, bacteria, yeast, and protozoa. Dermaseptin's superior antibacterial potency can be attributed to a molecular element: the NH2-terminal α-helical amphipathic fragment, which spans residues 1-18 of the molecule [1]. Dermaseptin (5-100 μg/ml; 48 hours) completely prevents the growth of the majority of tested microorganisms, including filamentous fungi, yeasts, bacteria, and parasites, at micromolar concentrations [2]. Dermaseptin treatment for one hour did not penetrate guinea pig lymphocytes up to the highest concentration assayed (200 μg/ml), and after 48 hours of incubation, it did not inhibit the proliferation of human KJ3 cells. ..Rabbit red blood cells were hemolyzed at 350 μg/ml, which resulted in a 50% hemolysis after an hour of treatment with a dose exceeding 200 μg/ml [2]. Aeromonas equi, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Escherichia coli, Enterococcus faecalis, and L. are among the bacteria that Dermaseptin has antibacterial action against. Microsporum canis (IP1194) and mezicana (NF alpha strain) have MIC values of 50 μg/ml, 100 μg/ml, 25 μg/ml, 15 μg/ml, and 50 μg/ml, respectively [2].

Solubility Data
Solubility (In Vitro)

Solubility (In Vivo)
Solubility in Formulation 1: 50 mg/mL (14.47 mM) in PBS (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution; with sonication.

 (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.)
Preparing Stock Solutions 1 mg 5 mg 10 mg
1 mM 0.2894 mL 1.4471 mL 2.8943 mL
5 mM 0.0579 mL 0.2894 mL 0.5789 mL
10 mM 0.0289 mL 0.1447 mL 0.2894 mL

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.

Calculator

Molarity Calculator allows you to calculate the mass, volume, and/or concentration required for a solution, as detailed below:

  • Calculate the Mass of a compound required to prepare a solution of known volume and concentration
  • Calculate the Volume of solution required to dissolve a compound of known mass to a desired concentration
  • Calculate the Concentration of a solution resulting from a known mass of compound in a specific volume
An example of molarity calculation using the molarity calculator is shown below:
What is the mass of compound required to make a 10 mM stock solution in 5 ml of DMSO given that the molecular weight of the compound is 350.26 g/mol?
  • Enter 350.26 in the Molecular Weight (MW) box
  • Enter 10 in the Concentration box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 5 in the Volume box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 62.5 μL (0.1 ml) appears in the Volume (Start) box
