CAS 15768-18-0: Silver lactate

Description: Silver lactate, with the CAS number 15768-18-0, is a chemical compound formed from the combination of silver ions and lactic acid. It typically appears as a white to off-white powder or crystalline solid. This compound is known for its antimicrobial properties, making it useful in various applications, including pharmaceuticals and wound care products. Silver lactate is soluble in water, which enhances its bioavailability and effectiveness in biological systems. The compound is often utilized in the preparation of silver-based formulations due to its ability to release silver ions, which are known for their bactericidal effects. Additionally, silver lactate can be used in the synthesis of other silver compounds and in analytical chemistry as a reagent. Safety considerations are important when handling silver lactate, as silver compounds can cause skin and eye irritation, and prolonged exposure may lead to argyria, a condition characterized by a bluish-gray discoloration of the skin. Overall, silver lactate is valued for its dual role in both therapeutic and analytical contexts.
