3-Oxocholic Acid Analysis Service

3-Oxocholic acid (3-oxo-CA) is an oxidized bile acid metabolite derived from primary bile acids like cholic acid, formed through liver oxidation or by intestinal microbiota. Its distinctive 3-oxo group gives 3-oxo-CA unique chemical properties and biological functions, setting it apart from other bile acids. Research suggests that 3-oxo-CA plays a significant role in bile acid metabolism and is linked to liver health, gut function, and cholesterol metabolism disorders. Accurate measurement of 3-oxo-CA levels and its metabolic changes is crucial for understanding its role in both health and disease.
