Sodium octanoate is related to its surfactant properties, particularly in studies involving the stabilization of emulsions and foams. Sodium Octanoate is significant in the field of colloidal chemistry, where it is used to investigate the formation and stability of micelles and bilayers in various aqueous environments. Sodium octanoate also plays a role in biochemical studies, In the examination of lipid-protein interactions within cellular membranes.We utilize sodium octanoate to explore its antimicrobial activity against a range of microorganisms, which is for understanding its potential as a preservative or disinfectant. It is involved in studies focusing on enhancing the solubility and bioavailability of poorly soluble chemicals, providing insights into chemical formulation and delivery systems.
