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.
