Description

Decanoic Acid-Carboxy-14C Sodium is a carbon-14 radiolabeled derivative of sodium decanoate, a key compound for advanced research and development. This product is essential for precise metabolic and pharmacokinetic studies, offering a reliable tracer for investigating fatty acid pathways. It is primarily utilized by researchers and scientists in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and life science sectors for applications requiring high-sensitivity detection and quantification.

Application

• Metabolic Pathway Tracing: Used as a radiolabeled tracer to study the absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME) of capric acid and related compounds in biological systems.
• Pharmaceutical R&D: Critical for drug discovery and development, enabling detailed pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamic (PD) studies of new chemical entities.
• Biochemical Research: Facilitates investigations into β-oxidation and other fatty acid metabolism processes in vitro and in vivo.
• Agrochemical Studies: Applied in environmental fate and metabolism studies of pesticides or herbicides that incorporate or interact with medium-chain fatty acid structures.
• Analytical Method Development: Serves as a critical standard for developing and validating sensitive analytical methods like Liquid Scintillation Counting (LSC) and accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS).
• Nutritional Science: Used to trace the metabolic utilization of medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs) and related nutritional supplements.
