Produktinformation

• Name: Glyceryl behenate
• Marke: Biosynth
• Beschreibung: Glyceryl behenate is a glycol ester that is used as an excipient in tablet formulations. It facilitates the absorption of drugs by increasing their solubility in water and may also increase the bioavailability of poorly soluble drugs. Glyceryl behenate is used as an absorption enhancer for cefpodoxime proxetil, which is a drug used to treat bacterial infections. This substance may also have therapeutic effects on alopecia areata, a disease characterized by hair loss. The thermodynamic data indicate that glyceryl behenate has low bioavailability due to its insolubility in aqueous media and its lack of affinity for lipid membranes.
