| ln Vitro |
Drug compounds have included stable heavy isotopes of carbon, hydrogen, and other elements, mostly as quantitative tracers while the drugs were being developed. Because deuteration may have an effect on a drug's pharmacokinetics and metabolic properties, it is a cause for concern [1].
Lauric acid-d23 itself does not exhibit direct in vitro biological activity as it is an analytical standard. However, the parent compound lauric acid is a medium-chain saturated fatty acid with strong antibacterial effects against various bacterial strains, including Propionibacterium acnes, Staphylococcus aureus, and Staphylococcus epidermidis with EC50 values of 2, 6, and 4 μg/mL, respectively. Lauric acid-d23 is used as an internal standard to accurately measure lauric acid concentrations in antibacterial assays and other biological samples. |
| ln Vivo |
Lauric acid-d23 is not intended for in vivo administration as a therapeutic agent; it is used as an analytical standard. The in vivo activity of the parent compound lauric acid is associated with its antibacterial and metabolic effects. Lauric acid-d23 is utilized in pharmacokinetic and metabolic studies to track the distribution, metabolism, and excretion of lauric acid in animal models.

The compound is used in quality control applications for fatty acid analysis.
|
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo animal studies for lauric acid-d23 are not conducted as therapeutic efficacy studies. Instead, the compound is administered to animals as a tracer in pharmacokinetic and metabolic studies to quantify the parent compound lauric acid in plasma, tissues, and excreta. These studies help determine the absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME) profile of lauric acid. The labeled compound allows for precise tracking and identification of the fatty acid in biological matrices.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Lauric acid-d23 has a molecular formula of C₁₂HD₂₃O₂ and a molecular weight of 223.46. The compound appears as a white solid with a purity of ≥98% and an isotopic enrichment of ≥98 atom % D. It has a melting point of 39-41°C and is slightly soluble in DMSO and methanol. The compound is intended for research use only and is not for human consumption.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
The toxicity profile of lauric acid-d23 is not extensively characterized, as it is an analytical standard rather than a therapeutic agent. The parent compound lauric acid is a medium-chain fatty acid that is generally recognized as safe in moderate amounts. Lauric acid-d23 is intended for research use only and is not approved for clinical use. Standard laboratory safety precautions should be followed when handling this compound.

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
