Description

Quinine soluble salts possess the extremely bitter taste, that may have a perplexing problem especially to children. That is why the most common combinations which are administered in this way are the sulphate, salicylate, tannate and certain esters. Quinine tannate, an insoluble quinine salt has been known in medicine for a very long time. However, many experiments have revealed that quinine tannate was practically inert as a medicinal substance.

Sample Use Guides

In Vivo Use Guide
in adults: 648 mg (two capsules) every 8 hours for 7 days
Route of Administration: Oral
In Vitro Use Guide
Quinine (0-100 uM) stimulates adipogenesis through ERK/S6 (extracellular-signal-regulated kinase/Ribosomal protein S6) signaling, which at least partly functions via taste receptor, type 2, member 106 (T2R106)
