cholesterol (water soluble)

Cholesterol (Water Soluble) is a water-soluble cholesterol preparation used in experimental studies to investigate the specific effects of cholesterol enrichment or depletion on the biophysical properties and functional characteristics of inner hair cells (IHCs) with regard to potassium currents. As an essential component of the plasma membrane, cholesterol has the ability to modulate the activity and kinetics of ion channels embedded in the lipid bilayer. (Note: This product is a mixture of cholesterol and methyl-β-cyclodextrin.)

D-Pantothenic acid (vitamin B5) is an essential micronutrient and a precursor to coenzyme A. D-Pantothenic acid participates in the metabolism of the three major nutrients—fat, carbohydrates, and protein—within the body. D-Pantothenic acid also plays a crucial role in skin barrier repair, maintaining hematopoietic function, and synthesizing adrenal hormones.
