Biological Activity
Aflatoxin Q1, a hydroxy metabolite of Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1)a mycotoxin synthesized by Aspergillus flavus (A. flavus)and aflatoxin B1 8,9-oxide are principal oxidative derivatives produced from Aflatoxin B1 in human liver microsomes across all substrate concentrations. The conversion of Aflatoxin B1 to Aflatoxin Q1 through 3 alpha-hydroxylation represents a critical detoxification route (1) (2).
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.
Most small molecule inhibitors are not compatible with autoclaving (121 °C), which can cause thermal decomposition or loss of biological activity. For sterile cell-based experiments, filter-sterilize working solutions through a 0.2 µm membrane after dilution into aqueous buffer. Verify thermal stability in the DataSheet before applying any heat treatment.
Yes — TargetMol inhibitors can be used in cell-based and in vitro experiments. Prepare a DMSO stock, then dilute into cell culture medium to the desired working concentration, keeping DMSO ≤ 0.1% (v/v) to avoid solvent toxicity. Note that not all compounds have published data for every cell line or assay system; in such cases, perform a dose-response experiment with appropriate positive and vehicle controls to validate efficacy in your specific model.
