It’s soluble in glycols. I solubilised 5% in propanediol. It required 20 minutes mixing on the magnetic stirrer without heating.
…A MAGNETIC STIRRER ?

6 mL of ALA, did you mean 6 g?If so, 6 mL or 6 g, in 30 mL of water will give you a 17% solution, not 5%.
Emulsions work well in solubilizing the otherwise water-insoluble ALA, most commercial formulations with lipoic acid are, in fact, emulsions of some kind.
yes I’m measuring by volume and not weight… 17% !!!! ooops ..I think I’m gonna have to run all mixtures with you all ..lol
