Metabolite Identification
Common NameAlpha-Muricholic acid
DescriptionAlpha-Muricholic acid, also known as a-muricholate, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as trihydroxy bile acids, alcohols and derivatives. These are prenol lipids structurally characterized by a bile acid or alcohol which bears three hydroxyl groups. Alpha-Muricholic acid is an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa).
