DIGITONIN Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Propertieswhite crystalline powder
Usesenhances membrane permeability
UsesNatural surfactant useful for receptor solubilization and cell permeabilization, e.g., blood platelets, hepatocytes, yeast or tumor cells
UsesDigitonin has been used in a study to assess a procedure for isolating mitochondria from ascites tumor cells. It has also been used in a study to investigate its effect on the cytotoxicity of plant secondary metabolites in cancer cells. This mild nonionic detergent can be used to solubilize receptors and permeabilize cellular and nuclear membranes.
UsesClinical reagent (cholesterol determination).
General DescriptionCrystals or white powder.
Air & Water ReactionsForms soapy aqueous suspension .
Reactivity ProfileDIGITONIN is incompatible with strong oxidizing agents and strong acids. (NTP, 1992
Fire HazardFlash point data for DIGITONIN are not available; however, DIGITONIN is probably combustible.
Biological ActivityDigitonin plays a key role in permeabilizing cell membranes. It is capable of lysing eukaryotic cells but not bacterial membranes. It is also used to solubilize membrane components. It helps to create pores by interacting specifically with cholesterol in the membrane. It is preferred in biotechnology due to its mild detergency. This membrane-active compound act with doxorubicin against multi-drug resistant cancer cells.
Safety ProfilePoison by ingestion, intravenous, intraperitoneal, and subcutaneous routes. Mutation data reported. See also DIGITALIS. When heated to decomposition it emits acrid smoke and irritating fumes.
Purification MethodsThis digitoxin hexa-glycoside can be recrystallised from aqueous 85% EtOH or MeOH/diethyl ether. It is purified by preparative paper chromatography and developed with the upper phase of a mixture of nBuOH/H2O/AcOH (4:5:1), and the spot (RF 0.36) is eluted with 25% CCl3CO2H in CHCl3. It has also been purified by countercurrent distribution. It forms an ethanolate, and complexes with cholesterol and other sterols.
