Deoxycholic acid disulfate (trisodium salt)
3α, 12α -dihydroxy-5β-cholan-24-oic acid disulfate trisodium salt
Deoxycholic Acid Disulfate, also referred to as Deoxycholate Disulphate, is a bile acid (BA). It is a very hydrophobic molecule, insoluble in water and relatively neutral.
The metabolite is a sulfate derivative of deoxycholic acid.
Deoxycholic acid (cholanoic acid) is a secondary BA that is formed as a product of bacteria metabolism in the intestines.
Deoxycholic acid and its derivatives, among which is Deoxycholic Acid Disulfate, take part in the emulsification and solubilization of dietary fats and other sterols to enhance their absorption in the gastrointestinal tract (GIT). They also have the ability to dissolve fat tissue by destroying adipocytes.
Recent research and analysis show that Deoxycholic Acid Disulfate and other deoxycholic acid derivatives can be used for isolation and investigation of membrane-associated proteins, to explore the process of gallstones formation and destruction, and the mechanism of different bile flow therapeutics.
Deoxycholic Acid Disulfate is part of a group of compounds, that are being considered as potential to be involved in nanotechnology and microlithography.
The sulfate derivative is also believed to participate in some physiological pathways, related to appetite, pain, stress, lifespan, and more.
Deoxycholic Acid Disulfate owns various effects on the human body, thus it’s suitable to incorporate in a range of lipid studies and analyses.
Avanti Research professionals produce high-grade Deoxycholic Acid Disulfate detergent to meet customer research needs and demands.
