Description

Oleyloxyethyl Phosphorylcholine is a high-purity synthetic phospholipid derivative, specifically a phosphatidylcholine analogue with an oleyloxyethyl chain. This compound is valued for its exceptional biocompatibility and surface-active properties, making it a critical functional ingredient in advanced formulations. It is primarily utilized in the pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and biomedical research sectors where biomimetic membrane stability and low irritation are paramount.

Application

• Liposome and Nanoparticle Formulation: A key phospholipid component for creating stable, long-circulating drug delivery vesicles for targeted therapies.
• Biomimetic Coatings: Used to create hemocompatible, protein-resistant surfaces on medical devices such as stents, catheters, and implants.
• Advanced Cosmetic Actives: Serves as a high-performance skin-identical lipid for restorative creams, serums, and moisturizers to enhance barrier function and delivery.
• Cell Culture & Research Reagents: Employed in synthetic lipid bilayers and membrane models for biochemical and biophysical studies.
• Ophthalmic Solutions: A functional excipient in artificial tears and contact lens solutions for its lubricating and protective effects.
• Diagnostic Assays: Used in the development of lipid-based reagents and standards for clinical diagnostics.

Quality Control

Our Oleyloxyethyl Phosphorylcholine is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch is subjected to rigorous analytical testing including HPLC, NMR, and MS to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications are provided to guarantee compliance with your research or cGMP-grade requirements.

Storage

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