Description

Glyceryl Tri(Hexadecanoate-D31) is a deuterated analog of tripalmitin, where 31 hydrogen atoms are replaced with deuterium. This compound is of significant value as a stable isotope-labeled internal standard for quantitative mass spectrometry analysis. It is primarily needed by analytical laboratories and research institutions in the pharmaceutical, metabolomics, and lipidomics sectors for precise quantification of triglycerides and related lipid species.

Application

• Mass Spectrometry Internal Standard: Used as a deuterated reference compound for the accurate quantification of natural tripalmitin and other triglycerides in complex biological matrices via LC-MS or GC-MS.
• Lipidomics Research: Enables precise tracking and measurement of lipid metabolism, absorption, and turnover in metabolic studies.
• Pharmaceutical Development: Supports bioanalytical method development and validation for drug candidates that affect lipid pathways.
• Clinical Diagnostics: Facilitates the development of high-precision assays for measuring triglyceride levels in patient samples.
• Nutritional Science: Used in studies investigating fat digestion, bioavailability, and the impact of dietary lipids.
• Stable Isotope Labeling: Serves as a critical tool in tracer studies to elucidate biochemical pathways and kinetics.
