Cytidine 5'-monophosphate sodium salt is a nucleotide that is found in RNA and DNA. Cytidine 5'-monophosphate sodium salt is an intermediate in the biosynthesis of uridine, choline, and saccharose. It also plays an important role in the immune system as it can be a precursor for immunoglobulins. The reaction rate of cytidine 5'-monophosphate sodium salt with lipase has been shown to be constant at pH 7.5-8.0 and 37°C. This product has been shown to have emulsifying properties by forming micelles with water-immiscible solvents such as hexane or heptane, which may be due to its ability to form hydrogen bonds with other molecules such as saccharose or guanosine. Cytidine 5'-monophosphate sodium salt can also be used as a chromatographic material for separating saccharose from other sugars
