Description

1,2-Dihexanoyl-Sn-Glycero-3-Phosphate (Sodium Salt) is a synthetic, anionic phospholipid derivative, specifically a sodium salt of phosphatidic acid with defined hexanoyl (caproyl) fatty acid chains. This compound is a critical biochemical tool and a high-purity intermediate for advanced research and formulation development. It is essential for scientists and manufacturers in the life sciences, pharmaceutical development, and specialty chemical sectors who require precisely defined lipid structures for membrane studies, drug delivery systems, and as a precursor for more complex phospholipids.

Application

• Liposome & Lipid Nanoparticle (LNP) Formulation: Serves as a component in the creation of model membranes and advanced delivery vehicles for nucleic acids (mRNA, siRNA) and hydrophobic drugs.
• Biochemical Research: Used as a substrate or standard in enzymatic assays involving phospholipases (e.g., phospholipase D) and for studying lipid-protein interactions and signal transduction pathways.
• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Acts as a key synthetic building block for the production of more complex, functionalized phospholipids used in therapeutic applications.
• Cell Culture & Membrane Biology: Employed in artificial membrane systems to study biophysical properties, membrane fusion, and permeability.
• Analytical Standard: Provides a high-purity reference material for lipidomics research and quality control in lipid-based product manufacturing.
• Cosmetic & Dermal Formulations: Can be utilized in premium skincare products as a biomimetic ingredient to support skin barrier function and delivery of active compounds.
