Providing storage is as stated on the product vial and the vial is kept tightly sealed, the product can be stored for up to
24 months(2-8C).
Wherever possible, you should prepare and use solutions on the same day. However, if you need to make up stock solutions in advance, we recommend that you store the solution as aliquots in tightly sealed vials at -20C. Generally, these will be useable for up to two weeks. Before use, and prior to opening the vial we recommend that you allow your product to equilibrate to room temperature for at least 1 hour.
Need more advice on solubility, usage and handling? Please email to: service@chemfaces.com
The packaging of the product may have turned upside down during transportation, resulting in the natural compounds adhering to the neck or cap of the vial. take the vial out of its packaging and gently shake to let the compounds fall to the bottom of the vial. for liquid products, centrifuge at 200-500 RPM to gather the liquid at the bottom of the vial. try to avoid loss or contamination during handling.

Identification of a novel glucosylsulfate conjugate as a metabolite of 3,4-dihydro-2,2-dimethyl-2H-naphtho[1,2-b]pyran-5,6-dione (ARQ 501, beta-lapachone) in mammals.[Pubmed:
18227145]
METHODS AND RESULTS:
3,4-Dihydro-2,2-dimethyl-2H-naphtho[1,2-b]pyran-5,6-dione (ARQ 501) is a fully synthetic version of the natural product beta-lapachone, which has been isolated from the lapacho tree (Tabebuia impetiginosa or Tabebuia avellanedae) and has demonstrated promising anticancer activity. 3,4-Dihydro-2,2-dimethyl-2H-naphtho[1,2-b]pyran-5,6-dione formulated with hydroxypropyl-beta-cyclodextrin has successfully completed phase I clinical trials and is currently in several phase II human clinical trials for the treatment of pancreatic cancer, head and neck cancer, and leiomyosarcoma. The metabolites of 3,4-Dihydro-2,2-dimethyl-2H-naphtho[1,2-b]pyran-5,6-dione were investigated by low-resolution and high-resolution mass spectrometry in plasma from (nu/nu) mice, rats, and humans treated with the compound. The data for one of the metabolites identified are consistent with conjugation of 3,4-Dihydro-2,2-dimethyl-2H-naphtho[1,2-b]pyran-5,6-dione with a glucosylsulfate moiety (m/z 241; fragment ion).
CONCLUSIONS:
Although other glucosylsulfate conjugates have been identified as metabolites of pesticides in cotton plants and in crustaceans as phase II metabolites of pyrenes, none have been previously identified in mammals. Data reported here identify a novel metabolic pathway for humans.

Potentiation of halogenated pyrimidine radiosensitizers in human carcinoma cells by beta-lapachone (3,4-dihydro-2,2-dimethyl-2H-naphtho[1,2-b]pyran- 5,6-dione), a novel DNA repair inhibitor.[Pubmed:
3652040]
3,4-Dihydro-2,2-dimethyl-2H-naphtho[1,2-b]pyran-5,6-dione (beta-lapachone) is a novel DNA repair inhibitor. 3,4-Dihydro-2,2-dimethyl-2H-naphtho[1,2-b]pyran-5,6-dione was tested for synergistic X-ray-induced lethality in combination with several halogenated pyrimidine radiosensitizers.
METHODS AND RESULTS:
3,4-Dihydro-2,2-dimethyl-2H-naphtho[1,2-b]pyran-5,6-dione synergistically increased the dose enhancement ratios (DERs) of all analogues screened, with the exception of the 2'-chloro derivative of 5-bromodeoxyuridine. 3,4-Dihydro-2,2-dimethyl-2H-naphtho[1,2-b]pyran-5,6-dione had little effect upon the cytotoxicities of unirradiated human epidermoid laryngeal carcinoma cells whether or not they were previously exposed to any of the halogenated pyrimidine radiosensitizers. 3,4-Dihydro-2,2-dimethyl-2H-naphtho[1,2-b]pyran-5,6-dione treatment following X-irradiation of cells that had not incorporated a pyrimidine analogue exhibited DER values of 1.38 +/- 0.05 and 1.40 +/- 0.01 at 10 and 1% survival levels, respectively.
CONCLUSIONS:
3,4-Dihydro-2,2-dimethyl-2H-naphtho[1,2-b]pyran-5,6-dioneenhanced the radiosensitization of deoxycytidine analogues to a greater extent than the structurally related deoxyuridine analogues. Greater DERs and lower Do and Dq values were found for deoxycytidine than for deoxyuridine analogue radiosensitizers following 3,4-Dihydro-2,2-dimethyl-2H-naphtho[1,2-b]pyran-5,6-dione treatment.
