Tauro-β-muricholic acid（Cat No.:R040541）, is a bile acid derivative found in the digestive system of mammals, including humans and rodents. It plays a crucial role in the emulsification and digestion of dietary fats and the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins. Tauro-β-muricholic acid is a primary bile acid formed in the liver and later conjugated with the amino acid taurine to become water-soluble. This conjugation enhances its detergent properties, facilitating the breakdown and absorption of dietary lipids. Bile acids like tauro-β-muricholic acid are vital components of the digestive process, ensuring efficient fat digestion and nutrient absorption.
