Isolithocholic acid (Standard)

Isolithocholic acid (Standard) is the analytical standard of Isolithocholic acid. This product is intended for research and analytical applications. Isolithocholic acid (β-Lithocholic acid) is an isomer of Lithocholic acid. Isolithocholic acid, a bile acid, is formed by microbial metabolism of Lithocholic acid or Lithocholic acid 3α-sulfate[1][2].
