Description

4-cis-Decenoyl-Coa is a specialized biochemical reagent, specifically a Coenzyme A derivative of a monounsaturated fatty acid. This compound is essential for researchers studying lipid metabolism, enzyme kinetics, and the biosynthesis of complex lipids. It serves as a critical substrate or intermediate in biochemical assays and metabolic pathway analysis. Key users include biotechnology firms, academic research institutions, and pharmaceutical companies engaged in metabolic disorder research and drug discovery.

Application

• Biochemical Research: Used as a defined substrate for studying acyl-CoA dehydrogenases, thioesterases, and other enzymes involved in fatty acid β-oxidation.
• Metabolic Pathway Analysis: Acts as an intermediate in in vitro reconstructions of lipid biosynthesis and degradation pathways.
• Enzyme Characterization: Employed in kinetic assays to determine enzyme specificity, inhibition constants (Ki), and catalytic efficiency for enzymes processing medium-chain unsaturated acyl-CoAs.
• Diagnostic Kit Development: A potential component in enzymatic assay kits for diagnosing specific metabolic deficiencies related to fatty acid oxidation.
• Pharmaceutical Screening: Used in high-throughput screening platforms to identify potential drug candidates that modulate enzymes of lipid metabolism.
• Nutritional Science Studies: Applied in research investigating the metabolic fate of dietary monounsaturated fatty acids.

Quality Control

Every batch of 4-cis-Decenoyl-Coa is produced and analyzed under strict quality protocols to ensure high purity and batch-to-batch consistency for research reproducibility. Our products undergo rigorous quality testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation via mass spectrometry. Certificates of Analysis (COA) with detailed chromatographic data are provided with each shipment to support your compliance and documentation needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store at -20°C or below in a non-frost-free freezer. The product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) and should be handled under anhydrous conditions. For long-term stability, store desiccated. Allow the vial to equilibrate to room temperature in a desiccator before opening to prevent condensation.
