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.

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.

Naphthoquinones from Catalpa ovata and their inhibitory effects on the production of nitric oxide.[Pubmed:
20361302]
METHODS AND RESULTS:
Bioassay-guided fractionation of a CH2Cl2-soluble fraction of the stems of Catalpa ovata led to isolation of a new naphthoquinone, 4-hydroxy-2-(2-methoxy-3-hydroxy-3-methyl-but-1-enyl)-4-hydro-1H-naphthalen-1-one (10), together with nine known compounds, catalponol (1), catalponone (2), catalpalactone (3), alpha-lapachone (4), 9-Hydroxy-alpha-lapachone (5), 4,9-dihydroxy-alpha-lapachone (6), 9-methoxy-alpha-lapachone (7), 4-oxo-alpha-lapachone (8), and 9-methoxy-4-oxo-alpha-lapachone (9). The structures were elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic analyses. The inhibitory effects of these isolates on lipopolysaccharide-induced NO synthesis in RAW 264.7 cells were evaluated.
CONCLUSIONS:
Among them, catapalactone (3), 9-Hydroxy-alpha-lapachone (5) and 4,9-dihydroxy-alpha-lapachone (6) exhibited potent inhibitory effects, with IC(50) values of 9.80, 4.64 and 2.73 microM, respectively.

Enzymatic characterization and inhibitor discovery of a new cystathionine {gamma}-synthase from Helicobacter pylori.[Pubmed:
17981822]
Cystathionine gamma-synthase (CGS) catalyses the first step of the transsulfuration pathway that converts l-cysteine to l-homocysteine in bacteria, whereas this pathway is absent in human.
METHODS AND RESULTS:
In this report, we identified a new metB gene from Helicobacter pylori strain SS1, and the recombinant H. pylori Cystathionine gamma-synthase (HpCGS) was successfully cloned, expressed and purified in Escherichia coli system. Enzymatic study of HpCGS indicated that the K(m) and k(cat)/K(m) values against the substrate O-succinyl-l-homoserine (l-OSHS) were 3.02 mM and 98.7 M(-)(1)s(-)(1), respectively. Moreover, four natural products (alpha-lapachone, 9-Hydroxy-alpha-lapachone, Paulownin and Yangambin, Fig. 1) were discovered to demonstrate inhibitory activities against HpCGS with IC(50) values of 11 +/- 3, 9 +/- 1, 19 +/- 2 and 27 +/- 6 microM, respectively.
CONCLUSIONS:
All these four inhibitors prevent the binding of l-OSHS to HpCGS in a non-competitive fashion. In vitro antibacterial assays further indicated that these four discovered compounds could highly inhibit the growth of H. pylori and exhibited strong inhibitory specificity against H. pylori related to E. coli.
