Taurochenodeoxycholic acid (sodium salt) (Cat No.: R066732) is a bile acid conjugate, primarily involved in the digestion and absorption of fats. It is formed by the conjugation of taurocholic acid with chenodeoxycholic acid. As a component of bile, it plays a role in emulsifying dietary fats and facilitating their breakdown by pancreatic enzymes. This compound is used in medical treatments for bile acid malabsorption and related disorders. Its sodium salt form enhances its solubility and effectiveness in aqueous solutions.
