Protocol

Cell experiment [1]:

Cell lines

Plasmodium falciparum

Preparation method

The solubility of this compound in DMSO is ≥7.7 mg/mL. General tips for obtaining a higher concentration: Please warm the tube at 37 ℃ for 10 minutes and/or shake it in the ultrasonic bath for a while. Stock solution can be stored below -20℃ for several months.

Reacting condition

380 uM

Applications

Sulfanilamide moderately inhibits the Plasmodium falciparum growth.

Animal experiment [1]:

Animal models

Male, immunosuppressed Sprague-Dawley rats

Dosage form

100, 10, and 1.0 mg/kg/day

Application

Sulfanilamide effectively inhibited P.carinii infection in immunosuppressed rat model with a concentration of 100.0 mg/kg /day. When the dose of Sulfanilamide was reduced to 10.0 mg/kg/day, P. carinii infection occurred.

Other notes

Please test the solubility of all compounds indoor, and the actual solubility may slightly differ with the theoretical value. This is caused by an experimental system error and it is normal.
