General description

Lactic acid is an α hydroxyl carboxylic acid produced from pyruvate by the enzyme lactate dehydrogenase (LDH). Lactate is one of the main components of Ringer′s lactate or lactated Ringer′s solution.

Application

Sodium DL-lactate solution has been used:
  • as a component in DMEM-B to prepare Dulbecco modified Eagle medium (DMEM)-C medium to evaluate the effect of medium composition on in vitro spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs) maintenance[1]
  • as a supplement in Dulbecco′s modified Eagle′s medium-nutrient mixture F12 to obtain conditioned media of testicular macrophages[2]
  • as a component in non-capacitation medium and TALP medium for sperm preparation and in vitro fertilization[3]
  • in 4-(2-hydroxyethyl)-1-piperazineethanesulfonic acid (HEPES) buffered synthetic oviduct fluid (SOF) media for oocyte preservation[4]

Biochem/physiol Actions

Lactic acid is produced by lactic acid bacteria (LAB) during carbohydrate fermentation. Different microorganism synthesize different forms of lactic acid such as L(+), D(-) or DL (racemic mixture). It is preferred in food processing and preservation due to its antimicrobial property. Lactic acid is useful as a flavoring and acidifying agent.[5]

Questions

  1. May i know how to calculate the molarity of this solution?

    1 answer
    1. This product is a 60% w/w solution with a density of 1.31 g/mL and a molecular weight of 112.06 g/mol. The molarity of this preparation is 7.014M according to the following calculation:
      Density (1310 g/L) x % solution (0.60) / molecular weight (112.06) = 7.014 M.
