General description

This Certified Spiking Solution® is suitable as a starting material in preparation of linearity standards, calibrators, and controls for use in LC-MS/MS and GC/MS bile acid testing methods. Cholic acid is a primary bile acid that plays an important role in cholesterol homeostasis and intestinal absorption of dietary vitamins and lipids. Levels of cholic acid can serve as markers for inborn and acquired hepatobiliary disorders such as biliary atresia and familial intrahepatic cholestasis as well as inborn errors of bile acid synthesis and sclerosing cholangitis.

Application

Non-denaturing ionic detergent used for extraction of membrane proteins.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Bile Acid
