| Bioactivity | 3-Hydroxybutyric acid sodium (β-Hydroxybutyric acid sodium) is a metabolite that is elevated in type I diabetes. 3-Hydroxybutyric acid sodium can modulate the properties of membrane lipids[1]. |
| Invitro | 3-Hydroxybutyric acid sodium (β-Hydroxybutyric acid sodium) is capable of interacting with lipids (modeled using a DPPC monolayer) and altering phase behavior at clinical concentrations. 3-Hydroxybutyric acid sodium also diminishes the interfacial viscosity of DPPC Monolayers[1]. |
