β-Selinene is a sesquiterpene and is the main active component of the essential oil of red purple hibiscus (Callicarpa macrophylla). β-Selinene exhibits significant related antioxidant activity, anti-inflammatory activity, and antipyretic analgesic activity. β-Selinene may exert antioxidant effects by directly scavenging free radicals (DPPH, NO, •OH) and chelating pro-oxidative metal ions (Fe²⁺); inhibit cyclooxygenase (COX) activity, reduce prostaglandin (such as PGE₂) synthesis to exert anti-inflammatory effects; regulate the thermoregulatory set point of the hypothalamus and inhibit inflammatory mediators to exert antipyretic and analgesic effects.

The dilution calculator equation

Concentration (start) × Volume (start) = Concentration (final) × Volume (final)

This equation is commonly abbreviated as: C1V1 = C2V2

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
