General description

Sodium DL-lactate is an organic, sodium salt of lactic acid. It is a hygroscopic agent and a component of natural moisturizing factor (NMF). It is usually produced by fermentation.

Application

Sodium DL-lactate has been used as a component in Trypticase soy broth to culture P. gingivalis and to observe prolonged methane production in batch assays.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Sodium lactate functions as a buffer to maintain osmotic and charge balance. It serves as a humectant, especially in cosmetic preparations. It acts a flavoring agent in meat and poultry products. Sodium lactate also plays a role as a buffer. Sodium lactate could be an alternative source of energy and an oxidative substrate in case of lack of oxygen in brain cells.
