Description

1,2-Dioleoyl-3-decanoyl-rac-glycerol is a structured triglyceride (TAG) synthesized from glycerol esterified with oleic and decanoic acids. This specific molecular configuration is critical for research and development in lipid-based drug delivery systems, where precise fatty acid positioning influences bioavailability and release kinetics. It serves as a key intermediate and reference standard for pharmaceutical scientists, nutraceutical formulators, and advanced material researchers developing targeted therapeutics and functional lipids.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Excipient: A critical lipid component in the formulation of self-emulsifying drug delivery systems (SEDDS) and lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) to enhance the solubility and absorption of poorly water-soluble APIs.
• Biomedical Research: Used as a model structured triglyceride in studies investigating lipid metabolism, intestinal absorption, and the synthesis of complex lipid membranes.
• Nutraceutical Development: Employed in the design of specialized nutritional supplements and medical foods that require specific triglyceride structures for metabolic conditions.
• Reference Standard: Serves as a high-purity analytical standard for quality control and method development in chromatographic analysis (e.g., HPLC, GC) of lipids.
• Cosmetic Ingredient: Acts as an emollient and carrier oil in high-end cosmetic formulations, providing unique texture and delivery properties.
• Chemical Synthesis Intermediate: A building block for the further chemical modification and synthesis of more complex glycerolipids and phospholipids.
