Description

1,2-Dioleoyl-3-Docosanoyl-Rac-Glycerol is a structured triacylglycerol (TAG) composed of oleic and behenic acid residues. This specific molecular configuration is valued for its unique physical properties and metabolic characteristics, making it a critical component in advanced lipid research and formulation. It is primarily sought after by researchers and product developers in the pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, and specialty chemical industries for applications requiring well-defined lipid structures.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Excipient: Used as a lipid matrix in the development of solid lipid nanoparticles (SLNs) and nanostructured lipid carriers (NLCs) for drug delivery systems.
• Nutraceutical Research: Serves as a model structured lipid in studies investigating fat absorption, metabolism, and the delivery of lipophilic bioactive compounds.
• Reference Standard: Acts as a high-purity analytical standard for the identification and quantification of complex lipids in chromatography (HPLC, GC) and mass spectrometry.
• Biochemical Research: Employed in enzymatic studies, membrane biophysics research, and as a substrate for lipases and other lipid-metabolizing enzymes.
• Cosmetic Formulation: Potential use as an emollient or structuring agent in high-end cosmetic products due to its specific fatty acid profile.
• Food Science: Investigated for its functional properties in specialized food products designed for controlled lipid release or specific nutritional profiles.

Quality Control

Our 1,2-Dioleoyl-3-Docosanoyl-Rac-Glycerol is produced and handled under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including chromatographic purity assessment and identity confirmation, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and development. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing specific results for purity, identity, and related substances is provided with every shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) at 2-8°C or as indicated on the label/Certificate of Analysis. For long-term storage, keep containers sealed in a cool, dry place. Allow the product to reach room temperature before opening to prevent condensation.
