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.

DNA cross-linking in mammalian cells by pyrrolizidine alkaloids: structure-activity relationships.[Pubmed:
1949039]
Pyrrolizidine alkaloids (PAs) are common constituents of many species of flowering plants which possess carcinogenic as well as anticarcinogenic activity in vivo. Pyrrolizidine alkaloids are genotoxic in various short-term assays. The mechanisms by which these compounds exert these effects is still unclear.
METHODS AND RESULTS:
In this study, we characterized the ability of eight bifunctional PAs, with differing stereochemistry and functional groups, to cross-link cellular DNA in cultured bovine kidney epithelial cells. PAs representative of three major structural classes, the macrocycles (seneciphylline, Riddelline, retrorsine, senecionine, monocrotaline), the open diesters (heliosupine, latifoline), and pyrrolizidine base (retronecine) were cultured for 2 hr with cells and an external metabolizing system. Every PA induced DNA cross-links which consisted primarily of proteinase-sensitive cross-links (DPC), but also to a smaller extent, DNA interstrand cross-links (ISC). None of the PAs induced detectable amounts of DNA single-strand breaks. The PAs which produced DPC and/or ISC (ranked from most potent to least) were: seneciphylline (DPC greater than ISC); Riddelline (DPC greater than ISC); retrorsine (DPC greater than ISC); senecionine (DPC greater than ISC); heliosupine (DPC greater than ISC); monocrotaline (ISC = DPC); latifoline (DPC greater than ISC); and retronecine (ISC greater than DPC). Although the PAs induced DNA cross-linking to varying degrees, cell viabilities for all treatment groups were greater than 90% as determined by trypan blue dye exclusion. Since the cross-linking ability of these PAs paralleled their ability to inhibit colony formation, cross-link formation may be involved in the biological activity of these compounds.
CONCLUSIONS:
Two structural determinants of biological activity appear to be the presence of both a macrocyclic necic acid ester and an alpha,beta-unsaturated ester function since the cross-linking ability of seneciphylline, Riddelline, retrorsine, and senecionine far exceeded that of monocrotaline, heliosupine, latifoline, and retronecine. In addition, the stereochemical orientation of the ester linkage was found to have no effect on biological activity.
