Description

C24:1 3'-Sulfo Galactosylceramide (D18:1/24:1(15Z)) is a specific, high-purity sulfatide, a critical class of sulfated glycosphingolipids. This compound matters as a vital biochemical tool and reference standard for research into lipid metabolism, cellular signaling, and neurological function. It is essential for researchers and developers in the pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and diagnostic sectors, particularly for studying lysosomal storage disorders, myelin biology, and as a potential biomarker.

Application

• Biochemical Research & Standard: Serves as a high-purity reference standard for analytical methods like HPLC and mass spectrometry in lipidomics studies.
• Neuroscience Research: Used to investigate the role of sulfatides in myelin formation, stability, and in demyelinating diseases such as metachromatic leukodystrophy (MLD).
• Drug Discovery & Development: Employed as a substrate or target in screening assays for enzymes like arylsulfatase A or for developing therapeutic interventions for sphingolipidoses.
• Diagnostic Reagent Manufacturing: Utilized in the production of calibrators and controls for diagnostic kits targeting lysosomal storage disorders.
• Cell Biology Studies: Applied in research on lipid rafts, cell membrane dynamics, and apoptosis signaling pathways.
• Academic & Institutional Research: Fundamental tool for universities and research institutes exploring glycosphingolipid biochemistry and related pathologies.
