3-Hydroxybutyric Acid
3-Hydroxybutyric Acid is a named chemical substance, salt or derivative supplied within an identified composition specification.
Product & engineering
Understand the product.
3-hydroxybutyric acid, chemical formula: CH3CH(OH)CH2CO2H, is a hydroxy acid. 3-hydroxybutyric acid is chiral and has two enantiotopic isomers: d-3-hydroxybutyric acid and l-3-hydroxybutyric acid. This compound plays an important role in the physiological response of hypoglycemia during starvation.
The full chemical identity, positional or stereochemical form, assay and carrier define the supplied material. An acid, its salt and a formulated downstream product should not be treated as identical transactions.
The commercial boundary
Use the selected edition’s stated product level, geography, years and measurement basis. Materials, components, finished systems and services are separate commercial boundaries unless that edition explicitly combines them.
Which full identity and supplied form define this chemical?
The full chemical identity, positional or stereochemical form, assay and carrier define the supplied material. An acid, its salt and a formulated downstream product should not be treated as identical transactions.
