Uses
(1) Emulsifiers.
(2) Used for biochemical research, as pharmaceutical intermediates. Sodium cholate is a cholagogue, for the treatment of cholecystitis, bile deficiency, intestinal indigestion embolism.
(3) As organic acids with steroid structure, cholic acid can emulsify fat, promote its digestion.
(4) Non-denaturing ionic detergents for the extraction of membrane proteins. Choleretic produced by, and isolated from liver cells. asthma therapeutic Cholic Acid is an emulsifier that exists as colorless plates or a white
crystalline powder which has a bitter taste with a sweetish aftertaste.
it is slightly soluble in water. it functions as an emulsifying agent in
egg white.
