Precocene II is a chromene that has been found in A. houstonianum and has anti-juvenile hormone activity.1,2,3 It inhibits juvenile hormone biosynthesis in isolated spontaneously active cockroach (P. americana) corpora allata when used at concentrations of 1 mM or higher.1 Precocene II (8 μg/cm2 coating in Petri dish) inhibits development of the corpus allatum in newly eclosed female milkweed bugs and causes allatal regression when applied 120 hours post-eclosion in normally developing females.2 It induces precocious metamorphosis in milkweed bug second-stage nymphs when applied as a coating to Petri dishes at concentrations of 0.4 and 0.7 μg/cm2.3 Precocene II inhibits ovarian development in various insects, including milkweed bugs, cotton stainers, apple maggots, and Mexican bean beetles. Precocene II also inhibits production of the trichothecene mycotoxin 3-acetyldeoxy nivalenol in F. graminearum (IC50 = 1.2 μM) without inhibiting fungal growth.4

General tips | Please select the appropriate solvent to prepare the stock solution according to the
solubility of the product in different solvents; once the solution is prepared, please store it in
separate packages to avoid product failure caused by repeated freezing and thawing.Storage method
and period of the stock solution: When stored at -80°C, please use it within 6 months; when stored
at -20°C, please use it within 1 month. To increase solubility, heat the tube to 37°C and then oscillate in an ultrasonic bath for some time. |

Calculation results:
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.
