Description

(S)-3-Hydroxybutanoic acid is a normal human metabolite, that has been found elevated in geriatric patients remitting from depression. In humans, 3-Hydroxybutyric acid is synthesized in the liver from acetyl-CoA, and can be used as an energy source by the brain when blood glucose is low.

Solid

(S)-3-hydroxybutyric acid is the S-enantiomer of 3-hydroxybutyric acid; a normal human metabolite, that has been found elevated in geriatric patients remitting from depression. It is a conjugate acid of a (S)-3-hydroxybutyrate. It is an enantiomer of a (R)-3-hydroxybutyric acid.
