Tauroursodeoxycholic Acid (TUDCA)

Synonymes : TUDCA, Tauroursodeoxycholate, 3α,7β-Dihydroxy-5β-cholanoyltaurine, Ursodeoxycholyltaurine, Tauroursodeoxycholic acid

Tauroursodeoxycholic acid (TUDCA) is a taurine-conjugated bile acid that occurs naturally in the bile of bears and, to a lesser extent, humans. It is the taurine conjugate of ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA), a secondary bile acid with a long history in hepatology. While UDCA itself has been used clinically for decades, TUDCA has emerged as a compound of intense interest due to its superior water solubility and distinct cytoprotective properties. As a research chemical and pharmaceutical intermediate, TUDCA is typically supplied as a white to off-white crystalline powder with a purity of ≥98% (HPLC).

In the B2B arena, TUDCA is valued not only for its role as an active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) in certain markets but also as a key reference standard and intermediate in bile acid chemistry. Its applications span from hepatology research and mitochondrial biology to the development of novel formulations targeting cholestatic liver diseases and neurodegenerative conditions. The global demand for high-purity TUDCA has grown steadily, driven by both clinical research and the nutraceutical sector, where it is incorporated into specialized supplements. LyvBio supplies TUDCA with consistent quality, backed by comprehensive documentation, to meet the rigorous standards of pharmaceutical and research institutions worldwide.
