Description

4-[[(5Z,8Z,11Z,14Z)-1-Oxo-5,8,11,14-Eicosatetraenyl]Amino]Butanoic Acid is a synthetic eicosanoid derivative, structurally related to arachidonic acid metabolites, which plays a significant role in biochemical research and development. This compound is valued for its utility as a key intermediate or reference standard in the study of lipid signaling pathways, inflammation, and related physiological processes. It is primarily sought by research institutions, pharmaceutical R&D departments, and fine chemical manufacturers focused on developing novel therapeutic agents or diagnostic tools.

Application

• Biochemical Research: Used as a reference standard or probe in studies investigating eicosanoid biology, cyclooxygenase (COX) and lipoxygenase (LOX) pathways, and cellular signaling mechanisms.
• Pharmaceutical R&D: Serves as a critical intermediate in the synthesis of novel drug candidates targeting inflammatory diseases, pain, and cardiovascular conditions.
• Academic Research: Employed in university and institutional labs for fundamental research into lipid mediators and their role in human physiology and disease models.
• Diagnostic Development: Potential use in the development of immunoassays or calibration standards for detecting specific eicosanoids in biological samples.
• Fine Chemical Synthesis: Acts as a specialized building block for the custom synthesis of more complex, biologically active molecules for client-specific projects.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store at -20°C or below under an inert atmosphere for long-term stability. This product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); ensure containers are sealed tightly after each use to minimize exposure to atmospheric moisture. For short-term use, allow the sealed vial to equilibrate to room temperature before opening to prevent condensation.
