Sodium Cholate

Product Description

Sodium Cholate is the sodium salt of cholic acid, a naturally occurring bile acid derived from animal bile. It is a high-purity biochemical reagent widely used in biochemistry, molecular biology, and pharmaceutical research as a mild anionic detergent for solubilizing lipids, membrane proteins, and other hydrophobic molecules.

Known for its excellent solubilizing and emulsifying properties, Sodium Cholate plays a vital role in membrane protein studies, cell membrane research, and lipid metabolism analysis. Its ability to form micelles makes it highly effective in membrane purification, enzyme assays, and drug delivery formulations.
