Description

1,2,3-Tri[cis-6-Octadecenoyl]Glycerol is a structured triglyceride where all three hydroxyl groups of glycerol are esterified with cis-6-octadecenoic acid. This specific molecular configuration is of significant interest for advanced research and development in lipid chemistry and biochemistry. It serves as a critical high-purity standard and synthetic intermediate for specialized applications. Target industries include pharmaceutical research, nutraceutical development, and advanced material science where precise lipid structures are required.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Research & Development: Used as a reference standard or a key synthetic intermediate in the development of lipid-based drug delivery systems, including liposomes and nanoemulsions.
• Nutraceutical & Specialty Lipid Synthesis: Acts as a building block for synthesizing structured lipids with targeted nutritional or functional properties.
• Biochemical Research: Employed in studies of lipid metabolism, enzyme specificity (e.g., lipases), and membrane biophysics due to its defined structure.
• Cosmetic & Personal Care Formulation: Potential use as an emollient or a base material for creating novel, high-performance lipid ingredients in skincare products.
• Analytical Chemistry: Serves as a high-purity calibration standard for chromatographic (e.g., GC, HPLC) and mass spectrometric analysis of complex lipid mixtures.
• Material Science: Investigated for its properties in the development of bio-based polymers, lubricants, or surfactants with specific performance characteristics.
