Description

1,3-Dipalmitoleoyl-Rac-Glycerol is a structured triglyceride where palmitoleic acid is esterified at the sn-1 and sn-3 positions of the glycerol backbone. This specific molecular configuration is significant for research and development in lipid science, offering a defined model compound for studying lipid metabolism, absorption, and functionality. It is primarily sought by researchers and product developers in the nutraceutical, pharmaceutical, and specialty chemical industries for applications requiring high-purity reference standards or bioactive lipid intermediates.

Application

• Biochemical Research: Used as a high-purity reference standard or substrate in studies of lipase activity, lipid digestion, and metabolic pathways.
• Nutraceutical Development: Investigated as a potential structured lipid for specialized dietary formulations and functional food products.
• Pharmaceutical Intermediates: Serves as a key synthetic building block or model compound in the development of lipid-based drug delivery systems.
• Cosmetic Science: Evaluated for its emollient properties and potential use in high-end skincare formulations.
• Lipidomics and Analytical Standards: Essential for method development and calibration in advanced analytical techniques like LC-MS for lipid profiling.
