Description

Cholesterol decanoate is a chiral chemical compound that is used in the diagnosis of hepatitis. Cholesterol decanoate has been shown to be effective against cholesterol esterase, which is an enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of cholesterol esters and triglycerides. This drug also prevents the formation of fatty acid and fatty esters, which are important for cellular function. In addition, cholesterol decanoate has been found to be beneficial for treating symptoms related to high cholesterol and triglyceride levels.
