Decanoic acid sodium, also known as Decanoic acid sodium, is a salt of the fatty acid capric acid. It is easily soluble in water and has a slightly soapy smell. Decanoic acid sodium acts as a penetration enhancer, which means it increases the absorption and bioavailability of drugs across biological membranes, including the intestinal epithelium and the blood-brain barrier. This property makes it useful in pharmaceutical formulations to improve drug delivery and effectiveness. Furthermore, Decanoic acid sodium has potential applications in food preservatives and cosmetics due to its antibacterial properties.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
