Description Ceruletide (Caerulein) is a potent agonist of cholecystokinin receptor and it also is a safe and effective cholecystokinetic agent. It has a direct spasmogenic effect on the gallbladder muscle and bile ducts.
In vitro Ceruletide is the same as biologically and chemically to the human gastrointestinal hormones cholecystokinin-pancreozymin (CCK) and gastrin II. Ceruletide stimulates gallbladder contraction while delaying gastric emptying and inhibiting motility in the proximal duodenum [1]. Ceruletide in supramaximal but not in physiological doses activate NF-kappaB/Rel in vitro. This activation may induce a self-defending genetic program before the onset of cellular injury and may prevent higher degrees of damage of pancreatic acinar cells after secretagogue hyperstimulation [2].
In vivo Ceruletide (5-15 ng/kg, i.v.) shows a marked spasmogenic effect on the pylorus of rats. Ceruletide also reduces blood pressure in anesthetized dogs [1]. Ceruletide (0.4-0.5 mcg/kg, i.v.; 3-4 mcg/kg, s.c.) results in emesis and evacuation of the bowel in the intact conscious dog, and recovery is complete 15-30 min after i. v. administration and 2-4 hr after s.c. administration. Ceruletide SBA stimulation may perform as well as PP SBA stimulation in dogs with the portosystemic shunt and be more sensitive for the detection of hepatic dysfunction in dogs with the upper respiratory disease [3].

Molarity Calculator allows you to calculate the

  • Mass of a compound required to prepare a solution of known volume and concentration
  • Volume of solution required to dissolve a compound of known mass to a desired concentration
  • Concentration of a solution resulting from a known mass of compound in a specific volume
See Example

An example of a molarity calculation using the molarity calculator
What is the mass of compound required to make a 10 mM stock solution in 10 ml of water given that the molecular weight of the compound is 197.13 g/mol?
Enter 197.13 into the Molecular Weight (MW) box
Enter 10 into the Concentration box and select the correct unit (millimolar)
Enter 10 into the Volume box and select the correct unit (milliliter)
Press calculate
The answer of 19.713 mg appears in the Mass box

Calculate the dilution required to prepare a stock solution
The dilution calculator is a useful tool which allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentration. Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1.

See Example

An example of a dilution calculation using the Tocris dilution calculator
What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 20ml of a 50 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=50 μM, V2=20 ml and V1 is the unknown:
Enter 10 into the Concentration (start) box and select the correct unit (millimolar)
Enter 50 into the Concentration (final) box and select the correct unit (micromolar)
Enter 20 into the Volume (final) box and select the correct unit (milliliter)
Press calculate
The answer of 100 microliter (0.1 ml) appears in the Volume (start) box
