Product Description
1,3-Diphenylisobenzofuran (DPBF) is used as a selective probe for the detection and quantification of hydrogen peroxide in samples containing different reactive nitrogen and oxygen species (RNOS). DPBF is a fluorescent probe. In the past 20 years, it has been believed that it reacts specifically with some reactive oxygen species (such as singlet oxygen and hydroxyl, alkyl oxygen or alkyl peroxy radicals).
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vitro
Method of use: 1.1 Prepare the stock solution by mixing 10 mM DPBF with DMSO. 2. Prepare the 1,3-Diphenylisobenzofuran (DPBF) working solution. For instance, 10 mg of DPBF can be dissolved in 3.7 mL of DMSO. Note: It is advised to aliquot the DPBF storage solution and keep it at -20°C or -80°C in the dark. 1.2 Making the working solution Prepare a 10–20 μM DPBF working solution using either PBS diluted storage solution or hot serum-free cell culture medium. Note: Please prepare the DPBF working fluid for usage by adjusting its concentration to suit the current circumstances. 2.1 Suspension cells for cell staining: Centrifuge cells, add PBS, and wash twice for five minutes each time. Trypsin should be added in order to break down adherent cells after discarding the culture media. Centrifuge, remove supernatant, add PBS, and wash twice for five minutes each time. Note: Adherent cells do not require digestion if flow cytometry experiments are conducted. 2.2 Add 1 milliliter of DPBF working solution, then let it sit at room temperature for half an hour. 2.3 Discard the supernatant after centrifuging at 400 g for three to four minutes at 4°C. 2.4 After adding PBS, wash the cells twice for five minutes each. 2.5 Re-suspend the cells in 1 milliliter of PBS or serum-free media, and examine using a flow cytometer or fluorescence microscope. Observations 1. To prevent recurrent freezing and thawing, it is advised to aliquot the DPBF storage solution and store it in the dark at -20°C or -80°C. 2. Kindly modify the DPBF working fluid concentration based on the current circumstances. 3. This product may not be used for clinical diagnosis or treatment, nor may it be included into food or medication. It is intended solely for professional use in scientific study. 4. Please wear disposable gloves and a lab coat for your health and safety.

Solubility Data
Solubility (In Vitro)
DMSO: 5.56 mg/mL (20.57 mM)
H2O: < 0.1 mg/mL
Solubility (In Vivo)
Solubility in Formulation 1: 0.56 mg/mL (2.07 mM) in 10% DMSO + 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline) (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), suspension solution; with sonication.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 5.6 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of 20% SBE-β-CD physiological saline solution and mix evenly.
Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C,1 week): Dissolve 2 g SBE-β-CD in 10 mL saline to obtain a clear solution.

Solubility in Formulation 2: 0.56 mg/mL (2.07 mM) in 10% DMSO + 90% Corn Oil (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), suspension solution; with ultrasonication.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 5.6 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of corn oil and mix evenly.

 (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.)

*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
