Betamethasone succinate (NSSL-BMS) is a nano-formulation that can cross the blood-brain barrier. Betamethasone succinate is prepared by encapsulating the Betamethasone semi-succinate in PEG-liposomes. Betamethasone succinate utilizes the enhanced permeation and retention effects of liposomes to target and deliver the potent glucocorticoid to the inflammatory sites. Betamethasone succinate inhibits the secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines (such as TNF-α and IL-6) while maintaining the level of anti-inflammatory cytokine TGF-β. Betamethasone succinate can be used in the research of arthritis and cerebral malaria.

Providing storage is as stated on the product vial and the vial is kept tightly sealed, the product can be stored for up to 24 months.
Wherever possible, you should prepare and use solutions on the same day. However, if you need to make up stock solutions in advance, we recommend that you store the solution as aliquots in tightly sealed vials at -20°C. Generally, these will be useable for up to one month. Before use, and prior to opening the vial we recommend that you allow your product to equilibrate to room temperature for at least 1 hour.
