Description

1,2-Dimyristoyl-3-Oleoyl-Rac-Glycerol CAS NO 115223-97-7 is a defined, high-purity structured triglyceride (TAG) with a specific fatty acid composition. This compound is a critical intermediate and reference standard for advanced lipid research and the development of specialized lipid-based formulations. It is essential for researchers and manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, and advanced cosmetic industries who require precise molecular structures for bioavailability studies, drug delivery systems, and high-performance emollients.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Excipient: Used as a structured lipid carrier in lipid nanoparticle (LNP) formulations for enhanced drug solubility and targeted delivery.
• Biochemical Research: Serves as a critical standard and substrate in lipidomics, enzymology (e.g., lipase studies), and metabolic pathway analysis.
• Nutraceutical Development: Employed in the formulation of specialized medical nutrition products and structured lipids designed for specific nutritional benefits.
• Cosmetic Science: Acts as a high-purity emollient and texture enhancer in premium skincare products, providing specific melting profiles and skin feel.
• Reference Material: Provides an analytical standard for the identification and quantification of complex triglycerides in food, biological, and pharmaceutical samples via techniques like HPLC and MS.
• Lipid Membrane Studies: Used in biophysical research to model and study the properties of lipid bilayers and vesicles (liposomes).
