Decanoic acid sodium

Catalog No.: A86520
Biochemical Assay Reagent
Decanoic acid sodium is a salt of capric acid that serves as a biochemical assay reagent. It is highly soluble in water and functions as a penetration enhancer, facilitating the absorption and bioavailability of drugs across biological membranes, such as the intestinal epithelium and the blood-brain barrier. This characteristic makes it valuable in pharmaceutical formulations aimed at improving drug delivery and efficacy. Additionally, Decanoic acid sodium exhibits antibacterial properties, suggesting potential applications in food preservation and cosmetic formulations.
