Description

Acephate is a broad-spectrum anticholinesterase insecticide. Acephate acts via inhibiting AChE (Cholinesterase (ChE)) activity of insects. Acephate is used for control of several species of insects in agriculture and in horticulture[1].

IC50 & Target

AChE

 

In Vitro

In rat immature Leydig cells after 3-h culture, Acephate inhibits basal androgen output in a dose-dependent manner with the inhibition starting at 0.5 μM. Acephate significantly inhibits luteinizing hormone and 8-Br-cAMP stimulated androgen output at 50 μM. Acephate significantly inhibits progesterone-mediated androgen output at 50 μM[1].

In Vivo

Adult male mice are gavaged with 0, 7, 14, and 28 mg/kg/day acephate for 28 d and sperm motility and number are decreased at 14 and 28 mg/kg/day[1].

* Please refer to the solubility information to select the appropriate solvent. Once prepared, please aliquot and store the solution to prevent product inactivation from repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Storage method and period of stock solution: -80°C, 6 months; -20°C, 1 month. When stored at -80°C, please use it within 6 months. When stored at -20°C, please use it within 1 month.

* Note: If you choose water as the stock solution, please dilute it to the working solution, then filter and sterilize it with a 0.22 μm filter before use.

For the following dissolution methods, please prepare the working solution directly. It is recommended to prepare fresh solutions and use them promptly within a short period of time.
The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.
