Gallein is a cell-permeable xanthene compound that binds to Gbetagamma with high affinity (Kd ~400 nM derived from a surface plasma resonance binding study using Gbeta1gamma2) and blocks Gbetagamma-dependent cellular activities. Gallein is reported to exhibit prophylactic efficacy against carrageenan-induced neutrophil recruitment and tissue swelling in a murine paw edema model. Gallein is an inhibitor of G beta and G gamma. It binds to G beta and G gamma with high affinity and blocks their activities. Gallein may act to be effective in preventing inflammation and tissue swelling in a mouse paw edema model.

Can this product be stored in solution?

Asked by: hawkeye11
For this chemical, Gallein (CAS 2103-64-2), we don't have information regarding stability and storage once dissolved in DMSO, however typically short term storage 1-2 weeks is at 4 ºC and long term storage is at 20 ºC. The thaw and refreeze should be minimized.
