Safety & Regulatory
For Research Use Only (RUO). Not for therapeutic, diagnostic, or clinical use. Wear appropriate PPE and consult the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) prior to handling.
When solubility is listed as < 1 mg/mL, the compound dissolves to less than 1 mg per milliliter in water at 25 °C, pH 7.4. Such compounds require an organic co-solvent such as DMSO to prepare a concentrated stock, which is then diluted into aqueous assay buffer. For cell-based assays, keep the final DMSO concentration below 0.1% (v/v) to avoid solvent-induced cytotoxicity.
Solubility data for each compound is provided on the TargetMol product page and DataSheet, listed as maximum solubility in DMSO and/or aqueous media (mg/mL and mM). For compounds not yet characterized, prepare a test dissolution at the intended stock concentration and visually confirm clarity before use. When preparing aqueous working solutions, always dilute from a DMSO stock and monitor for precipitation at your final assay concentration.
