Lactic acid

Description:
Lactic acid, with the CAS number 50-21-5, is an organic acid characterized by its molecular formula C3H6O3. It is a colorless, syrupy liquid that is soluble in water, ethanol, and ether, making it versatile in various applications. Lactic acid exists in two stereoisomeric forms: L-lactic acid and D-lactic acid, with the L-form being the most prevalent in biological systems. It is produced naturally in the body during anaerobic respiration, particularly in muscle cells during intense exercise, and is also a byproduct of fermentation processes in certain bacteria. Lactic acid has a sour taste and is commonly used as a food preservative, flavoring agent, and acidulant in various food products. Additionally, it plays a significant role in the cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries due to its moisturizing properties and its ability to promote skin exfoliation. In industrial applications, lactic acid is utilized in the production of biodegradable plastics, solvents, and as a pH regulator in various formulations. Its biodegradable nature makes it an environmentally friendly alternative in many applications.

  • DL-Lactic acid

    CAS:
    <p>DL-lactic acid is a metabolic intermediate that is produced in the muscle cells during anaerobic glycolysis. It is used to treat cancer and has been shown to be effective against squamous cell carcinoma. DL-lactic acid also inhibits mitochondrial membrane potential, which may be one of the mechanisms by which it causes cell death. DL-lactic acid has been found to have antibacterial efficacy against a number of bacteria, including Staphylococcus aureus, Enterococcus faecalis, Escherichia coli, Proteus mirabilis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Streptococcus pyogenes. DL-lactic acid also inhibits enzyme activities that are necessary for bacterial growth such as phosphotransferase enzymes and urease. DL-lactic acid is a metabolic intermediate that can be used to inhibit tumor growth and metastasis. DL-lactic acid also inhibits transcriptional regulation in human serum</p>
