cholesterol (water soluble)

Cholesterol (Water Soluble) is a chemically modified, aqueous-soluble formulation of cholesterol that is experimentally utilized for investigating the specific effects of cholesterol enrichment or depletion on the biophysical properties and functional characteristics of potassium currents in inner hair cells (IHCs), given that cholesterol is an essential component of the plasma membrane that regulates the activity and kinetics of ion channels embedded within the lipid bilayer.

D-Pantothenic acid (vitamin B5) is a water-soluble vitamin ubiquitously found in plants and animal tissues with an antioxidant property. D-Pantothenic acid is a component of coenzyme A (CoA) and a part of the vitamin B2 complex. D-Pantothenic acid is a growth factor and is essential for various metabolic functions, including the metabolism of carbohydrates, proteins, and fatty acids. This vitamin is also involved in the synthesis of cholesterol, lipids, neurotransmitters, steroid hormones, and hemoglobin.
