Solubility test of RAD140 in DMSO
RAD140, also known as Testolone, is an SARM (Selective androgen receptor modulator) that has received much attention in the fitness and research communities. It is known for promoting muscle growth and enhancing bone density. However, for RAD140 researchers, understanding its solubility is critical, especially when preparing experimental solutions or custom compounds. Today, we will conduct detailed experiments and observations on the solubility of 1g RAD140 in DMSO (dimethyl sulfoxide).
Experimental procedure
Prepare experimental materials
1.RAD140 powder 1g
2. High purity DMSO (Laboratory level)
3.10ml clear glass container
4. Stir stick and dropper
5. Thermometer (DMSO solubility may change at different temperatures)
All right, Let’s going to test the solvent DMSO. As you can see at the bottom of the DMSO container, there are crystals, while the upper portion is a clear liquid. This is mainly because the temperature this morning dropped below 18.45oC, causing the DMSO to crystallize.
After introducing this physical property of DMSO, we’ll begin today’s dissolution experiment.
We’ll stick to our usual approach of adding 1ml DMSO at a time, observing and recording the solution state.
DMSO is an excellent solvent with broad application in dissolving various substances.
All right, let’s begin.
1ml DMSO:
After adding 1ml of DMSO, without any stirring or shaking yet, we can already see that more than half of the 1g of RAD140 powder has dissolved.
Alright, let’s give it a gentle shake now, to make sure all the powder and DMSO mix it thoroughly.
Next, let’s check the dissolution state. It seems 1ml of DMSO isn’t enought to fully dissolve 1g of RAD140.
2ml DMSO:
So, let’s add another 1ml of DMSO and stir it thoroughly to help the solvent dissolve more completely.
Now we can see that the solution has become transparent with a small amount of powder still reminding at the bottom.
Next, we’ll use ultrasonic cleaner combining heat and vibration to see if 2ml of DMSO can fully dissolve 1g of RAD140.
If you often watch our video, you may wonder why don’t we use the ultrasonic cleaner in every experiment?
The reason is that our ultrasonic cleaner only provides heating and vibration. If the solvent itself isn’t capable of dissolving the substance, using the ultrasonic cleaner won’t help.
Alright, let’s use the ultrasonic cleaner now to speed up the process. After just a few minutes, we can see that the liquid has become completely clea and transparent, with no sediment or suspended particle.
With 2ml of DMSO, 1 gram of RAD140 powder has fully dissolved.
Experimental conclusion
The experimental results show that 1g RAD140 can be completely dissolved in 2ml DMSO, and the solution is transparent and uniform, without suspended particles or precipitation. This shows that DMSO has a strong solubility to RAD140 and is a very suitable solvent for the dissolution and preparation of RAD140 solutions.
Matters needing attention
Temperature effects:
The solubility of DMSO may be stronger at higher temperatures, so when the ambient temperature is low, the solvent can be properly heated (below 40 ° C) to promote the dissolution efficiency.
Solvent selection:
Compared with other solvents, DMSO not only has excellent solubility for RAD140, but also has good chemical stability, which is suitable for laboratory preparation and long-term storage.
Sum up
Through this experiment, we confirmed that RAD140 has excellent solubility in DMSO, and only 2ml of DMSO can dissolve 1g RAD140. This discovery provides laboratories and individual users with the best way to dissolve RAD140, both efficiently and cost-effectively. At the same time, this shows that DMSO is a very reliable solvent choice. DMSO is an indispensable tool for users who need to prepare their own RAD140 solution.
