Product Information
| Description: | Cercosporin is produced by the plant pathogenSporakikuchii and elsinochromes, pigments of the elsinoe family of fungi. Cercosporin is an effective photosensitizer with a short activation wavelength that is primarily suitable for surface PDT photodynamic studies (especially for the avoidance of perforation studies). Cercosporin contains the perylenequinone structural features necessary to PKC activity with an IC50 of 0.6-1.3 μM. |
| Stability and Solubility Advice: | Information concerning product stability, particularly in solution, has rarely been reported and in most cases we can only offer a general guide. We recommend that stock solutions, once prepared, are stored aliquoted in tightly sealed vials and used within 1 month. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles. Storage conditions for some special products should refer to their storage details. |
