CAS 475-31-0: Glycocholic acid

Description:Glycocholic acid is a bile acid derivative formed from the conjugation of cholic acid with glycine. It is a key component of bile, playing a crucial role in the emulsification and absorption of dietary fats and fat-soluble vitamins in the intestine. Glycocholic acid is characterized by its amphipathic nature, possessing both hydrophilic and hydrophobic regions, which facilitates its function as a surfactant. The molecular structure includes a steroid backbone with hydroxyl groups that contribute to its solubility in water. Glycocholic acid is typically found in the form of a white to off-white powder and is soluble in water and alcohol but less soluble in non-polar solvents. It has a relatively high melting point and is stable under physiological conditions. In addition to its digestive functions, glycocholic acid is involved in various metabolic processes and can influence cholesterol metabolism. Its CAS number, 475-31-0, is used for identification in chemical databases and regulatory contexts.
