Metabolite Identification
Common NameUrsodeoxycholic acid
DescriptionUrsodeoxycholic acid, also known as ursodeoxycholate or actigall, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as dihydroxy bile acids, alcohols and derivatives. Dihydroxy bile acids, alcohols and derivatives are compounds containing or derived from a bile acid or alcohol, and which bears exactly two carboxylic acid groups. Ursodeoxycholic acid is a very hydrophobic molecule, practically insoluble (in water), and relatively neutral.
