Allocholic acid (Synonyms: ACA, AlloCA, allo-Cholic Acid, 5α-Allocholic Acid) |
Catalog No.GC60044 |
Allocholic acid is a typically fetal bile acid found in vertebrates and reappears during liver regeneration and carcinogenesis, besides it is also a conjugate acid of allocholate and an isomer of cholic acid. Allocholic acid is a potent and specific stimulant of the adult olfactory system, it has a role as a marine metabolite, a rat metabolite and a human metabolite.
