Description

13(S)-Hode Methyl Ester is a high-purity, chiral methyl ester derivative of a hydroxyoctadecadienoic acid (HODE) regioisomer. This compound serves as a critical reference standard and synthetic intermediate in advanced biochemical and pharmaceutical research. It is primarily utilized by research institutions, pharmaceutical R&D departments, and fine chemical manufacturers involved in lipidomics, inflammation studies, and the development of bioactive lipid mediators.

Application

• Biochemical Research Standard: Used as a high-purity analytical reference standard in lipidomics and metabolomics studies for the quantification of oxylipin pathways.
• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Serves as a key chiral building block in the synthesis of novel bioactive compounds targeting inflammatory and metabolic pathways.
• Cell Signaling Studies: Employed in vitro and in vivo research to investigate the role of specific oxylipins in cellular signaling, inflammation, and oxidative stress responses.
• Enzyme Activity Assays: Utilized as a substrate or inhibitor in assays to study the activity and specificity of lipoxygenase (LOX) and other related enzymes.
• Nutritional & Cosmetic Research: Applied in the development and testing of nutraceutical and cosmeceutical products focused on skin health and anti-aging mechanisms.

Quality Control

Our 13(S)-Hode Methyl Ester is produced under strict quality management protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high chemical purity. Each lot undergoes comprehensive analytical characterization, including chiral purity verification, to meet the exacting standards of research and development. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity (by HPLC), and specific optical rotation is provided with every shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. For long-term storage, keep the sealed container under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) at -20°C or below to minimize oxidation. Allow the product to equilibrate to room temperature in a desiccator before opening to prevent moisture condensation.
