Alpha Lipoic Acid(Granules)
Brief Introduction:
Alpha Lipoic Acid(α-Lipoic Acid) is a light yellow powder crystal, almost odorless. The solubility in water is small, about 1 g/L (20°C). But it is soluble in 10% NaOH solution and soluble in aliphatic solvents. It is also easily soluble in methanol, ethanol, chloroform and ether.
