Description

1,2-Dioleoyl-3-myristoyl-rac-glycerol is a defined, high-purity triacylglycerol (TAG) with a specific fatty acid composition. This compound is a critical standard and reference material for analytical chemistry, enabling precise calibration and method validation in lipid research. It serves as a key building block for researchers and manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, and advanced lipid science industries who require structurally defined lipids for product development and quality control.

Application

• Analytical Reference Standard: Primary use as a certified standard for Gas Chromatography (GC) and High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) in the quantification and characterization of complex lipid mixtures.
• Biochemical Research: Used in studies of lipid metabolism, enzyme kinetics (e.g., lipase specificity), and membrane biophysics due to its defined structure.
• Pharmaceutical Excipient Development: Acts as a model compound for formulating lipid-based drug delivery systems (LBDDS) such as self-emulsifying drug delivery systems (SEDDS) and nanoemulsions.
• Nutraceutical & Food Science: Employed as a reference material for analyzing structured lipids, infant formulas, and specialty fats to ensure compositional accuracy.
• Cosmetic Ingredient Research: Serves as a well-characterized lipid for developing and testing emollients, moisturizers, and other personal care formulations.
• Quality Control & Assurance: Essential for in-house calibration in quality control laboratories of edible oil refiners and nutritional supplement manufacturers.
