β-Tocotrienol is an antioxidant.
There are four tocopherols (α, β, δ, and γ) and four tocotrienols (α, β, δ, and γ) forms of vitamin E, which is known for its antioxidant activity. Tocotrienols are present in high concentrations in palm oil and wheat germ.
In vitro: The antioxidant activity of the tocopherols and tocotrienols was found to be mainly due to their ability to donate their phenolic hydrogens to lipid free-radicals. Although it is generally agreed that the relative antioxidant activity of the tocopherols was in the order α>β>γ>δ [1].
In vivo: In a previous study, mice were fed a nonpurified control diet, an atherogenic diet alone or the atherogenic diet supplemented with α- and β-tocopherols. Results showed that compared with mice fed the control diet, plasma cholesterol was fourfold greater in mice fed the atherogenic diet. Mice fed the atherogenic diet had much higher VLDL, intermediate density lipoprotein (IDL) and LDL cholesterol and markedly lower HDL cholesterol than the controls. Moreover, in mice fed the atherogenic diet, the hepatic cholesterol plus cholesterol ester concentration was 4.4-fold greater than in mice fed the control diet. Mice fed the atherogenic diet had large atherosclerotic lesions at the level of the aortic valve. The 0.5 g/100 g alpha-tocopherol and palm carotenoid supplements had no effect [2].
Clinical trial: So far, no clinical study has been conducted.

Working concentration: mg/ml;
Method for preparing DMSO master liquid: mg drug pre-dissolved in μL DMSO ( Master liquid concentration mg/mL, Please contact us first if the concentration exceeds the DMSO solubility of the batch of drug. )
Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next addμL PEG300, mix and clarify, next addμL Tween 80, mix and clarify, next add μL ddH2O, mix and clarify.
Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next add μL Corn oil, mix and clarify.
Note: 1. Please make sure the liquid is clear before adding the next solvent.
2. Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order. You must ensure that the solution obtained, in the previous addition, is a clear solution before proceeding to add the next solvent. Physical methods such as vortex, ultrasound or hot water bath can be used to aid dissolving.
