Description

1-Palmitoyl-2-(9,10-Dibromo)Stearoyl-Sn-Glycero-3-Phosphocholine is a high-purity, synthetic phospholipid derivative, specifically a brominated phosphatidylcholine. This compound is a critical research-grade biochemical for studying membrane biophysics, lipid peroxidation, and oxidative stress mechanisms. It is primarily utilized by pharmaceutical R&D teams, academic research institutions, and specialty chemical manufacturers focused on advanced lipidomics and drug delivery system development.

Application

• Biophysical Research: As a key component in model membrane systems (e.g., liposomes, bilayers) to study the effects of lipid bromination on membrane fluidity, permeability, and phase behavior.
• Oxidative Stress Studies: Used as a defined substrate or a biomarker analog to investigate the pathways and consequences of lipid peroxidation in cellular models.
• Pharmaceutical Development: Serves as a specialized raw material or intermediate in the formulation of novel liposomal drug delivery vehicles and diagnostic agents.
• Analytical Standard: Employed as a high-purity reference standard in mass spectrometry (MS) and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) for lipid identification and quantification.
• Biochemical Reagent: Used in enzymatic assays and studies involving phospholipases and other lipid-modifying enzymes to understand substrate specificity.

Quality Control

Every batch of our 1-Palmitoyl-2-(9,10-Dibromo)Stearoyl-Sn-Glycero-3-Phosphocholine is manufactured under controlled conditions and undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. We adhere to stringent in-house specifications suitable for research applications. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity (by HPLC/NMR), identity confirmation, and impurity profile is provided with each shipment to support your quality assurance protocols.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store at -20°C or below under an inert atmosphere (e.g., argon or nitrogen) to minimize oxidation and hydrolysis. The product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) and easily oxidized; allow the sealed vial to equilibrate to room temperature before opening to prevent condensation.
