3-Oxochenodeoxycholic acid

SKU: orb3024536

Description

3-Oxochenodeoxycholic acid is an endogenous metabolite generated from the oxidative metabolism of chenodeoxycholic acid by gut microbiota or cytochrome P450 enzymes (primarily CYP3A4). Studies have shown that 3-oxochenodeoxycholic acid can serve as a fecal biomarker for the diagnostic assessment of specific diseases, such as COVID-19.
