Procaine hydrochloride

Catalog No. T0802   CAS 51-05-8
Synonyms: Novocaine HCl, Procaine HCl

Procaine hydrochloride (Novocaine HCl) is the hydrochloride salt form of procaine, a benzoic acid derivative with local anesthetic and antiarrhythmic properties. Procaine binds to and inhibits voltage-gated sodiumchannels, thereby inhibiting the ionic flux required for the initiation and conduction of impulses. In addition, this agent increases electrical excitation threshold, reduces rate of rise of action potential and slows nerve impulse propagation thereby causing loss of sensation.

In vitro In anesthetized cats, Procaine (15 mg/kg) enhanced the cellular activity in the ventral hippocampal formation of the amygdala, the ventromedial hypothalamus, the septal nucleus, and the neocortex of the temporal lobe. Procaine acts as a stimulant for marginal system cells. Furthermore, Procaine facilitates the conduction of evoked stimulatory activity from the amygdala to the ventromedial hypothalamus.
In vivo Procaine exhibits the ability to bind to or antagonize nicotinic acetylcholine receptors and the 5-HT(serotonin) receptor-ion channel complex, as well as N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors. Its primary mechanism of action involves the inhibition of sodium ion influx by affecting the voltage-gated sodium channels on the neuronal cell membranes of peripheral nerves. This disruption of sodium ion flow prevents the generation of action potentials, thereby inhibiting signal transduction. Studies suggest that the receptor sites targeted by procaine are located on the cytoplasmic (internal) portion of the sodium channels.

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
