How to use

In Vitro:

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.
