Description

1,2,3-Tri-13(Z),16(Z)-Docosadienoyl-Glycerol is a structured triglyceride where glycerol is fully esterified with three molecules of the polyunsaturated fatty acid, 13(Z),16(Z)-docosadienoic acid. This specific molecular architecture is of significant interest for advanced research in lipid biochemistry and the development of specialized nutritional and pharmaceutical formulations. It serves as a critical high-purity reference standard and a potential building block for synthesizing complex lipid-based delivery systems. Key industries that utilize this compound include pharmaceutical R&D, nutraceutical development, and academic research focused on lipid metabolism and functional food ingredients.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Reference Standard: Used as a certified high-purity standard for analytical method development, validation, and quality control in lipid analysis.
• Nutraceutical Research: Investigated as a potential structured lipid for specialized dietary supplements and medical nutrition products targeting specific metabolic pathways.
• Lipidomics & Biochemical Research: Serves as a crucial reagent in academic and industrial research studying lipid signaling, membrane biophysics, and enzyme kinetics (e.g., lipase specificity).
• Drug Delivery System Development: Explored as a biocompatible excipient or core component in the formulation of lipid nanoparticles (LNPs), micelles, and other advanced delivery vehicles.
• Cosmetic Science: Potential use in high-end skincare formulations as an emollient or active carrier due to its unique fatty acid profile.
• Biomarker Discovery: Utilized in clinical research to develop assays for detecting and quantifying specific lipid species in biological samples.

Quality Control

Our products undergo rigorous quality testing to ensure compliance with industry standards for high-purity biochemicals. Each batch is characterized using advanced analytical techniques including HPLC, GC, and NMR to confirm identity and purity. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing batch-specific results are available upon request. We adhere to a quality management system to ensure traceability and consistency for research and development applications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) at -20°C or below for long-term stability. This product is easily oxidized and moisture-sensitive. Allow the sealed container to reach room temperature before opening to prevent condensation and moisture ingress.
