D-(-)-Lactic acid sodium

SKU: orb1301985

Description

Sodium D-lactate is the sodium salt of the chiral D-(-)-lactic acid, a microbial metabolite less common in mammals than the L-isomer. It is utilized in glycolysis and metabolic studies, serving as a substrate for enzymes like D-lactate dehydrogenase in both in vitro assays and in vivo research on metabolic disorders.
