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.

Sphaeralcic acid and tomentin, anti-inflammatory compounds produced in cell suspension cultures of Sphaeralcea angustifolia.[Pubmed:
24488717 ]
Sphaeralcea angustifolia, an endangered plant species in Mexico, is employed to treat inflammatory processes and as a wound healing remedy. Scopoletin (1) was reported as one of the main bioactive compounds in this plant.
METHODS AND RESULTS:
Here, we isolated and identified compounds with anti-inflammatory properties from the suspension-cultured cells of S. angustifolia. The CH2Cl2 : CH3OH extract of the cells exhibited anti-inflammatory properties in acute inflammation models. Two compounds were isolated, 5-hydroxy-6,7-dimethoxycoumarin, named Tomentin (2), and 2-(1,8-dihydroxy-4-isopropyl-6-methyl-7-methoxy)-naphthoic acid, denominated as sphaeralcic acid (3). Their structures were determined by spectroscopic and spectrometric analyses. The anti-inflammatory effects of both compounds were also evaluated.
CONCLUSIONS:
At a dose of 45 mg/kg, compound 2 inhibited the formation of λ-carrageenan footpad edema at 58 %, and compound 3 at 66 %.
Local application of compound 2 (225 mM per ear) or 3 (174 mM per ear) inhibited the phorbol ester-induced auricular edema formation by 57 % or 86 %, respectively. The effect of compound 3 was dose-dependent and the ED50 was 93 mM.
