Product Information

• Name: Sodium tanshinone IIA sulfonate
• Synonyms: DS 201
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Sodium tanshinone IIA sulfonate is a potent cardiotonic agent and antioxidant. It is prepared by the reaction of sodium tanshinone with sulfonic acid, followed by purification using preparative high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Sodium tanshinone IIA sulfonate has significant cytotoxicity against various tumor cells in culture. It inhibits mitochondrial membrane potential and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) activity, as well as DNA synthesis. The optimum concentration of sodium tanshinone IIA sulfonate for cardiotonic activity is 0.1 mM. This drug also has a positive effect on glucose metabolism and can prevent myocardial infarction in experimental models.
