Fatty Acids and Derivatives

General description &#945:-Tocopherol acetate is a fat soluble vitamin and a form of vitamin&nbsp:E. &nbsp:It can be obtained through dietary sources.

General Descriptionα-Tocopherol is synthesized from γ-tocopherol by the action of enzyme γ-tocopherol methyltransferase. It is the major form of Vitamin E in human plasma. It is present in sunflower seed oil.Application(+)-α-Tocopherol has been

(-)-Hydroxycitric acid lactone (Garcinia lactone) is an anti-obesity agent and a popular weight loss food supplement. (-)-Hydroxycitric acid lactone is a potent inhibitor of ATP-citrate lyase. (-)-Hydroxycitric acid lactone catalyzes the

(6S)-Tetrahydrofolic Acid is a|Folic Acid|derivative that has been shown to increase methotrexalate metabolism in humans.

(±)14,15-DiHETE is an ω-3 fatty acid found in high concentrations in marine organisms: it is also produced in large quantities as a metabolite of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) when EPA is incubated with rat liver microsomes and a rat colitis

(±)14,15-DiHETE is an ω-3 fatty acid found in high concentrations in marine organisms: it is also produced in large quantities as a metabolite of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) when EPA is incubated with rat liver microsomes and a rat colitis

1-Dansylpiperazine reagent used in the fluorimetric determination of fatty acids in body fluids (1): fatty acids are determined by pre-column derivatization (2).

1-Isopropyl-2-(trifluoromethyl)-1H-benzimidazole-5-carboxylic acid.

1-Linoleoyl-2-oleoyl-rac-glycerol is an α,β-diglyceride with residues of oleic and linoleic acids. A component of vegetable oils and animal fats.

A monohydroxy fatty acid derived from EPA, theoretically by the action of COX. Although its arachidonate derived congener 11(S)-HETE has been isolated from cultured neutrophils, it is not known if similar incubations with EPA can produce 11(S)-HEPE.

15(S)-HEPE is a polyunsaturated fatty acid, that is a monohydroxy fatty acid synthesized from EPA by the action of 15-LO. The biosynthesis of 15-HEPE is from EPA in guinea pig epidermal enzyme preparations. This is generated by soybean

15(S)-HEPE is a monohydroxy fatty acid synthesized from EPA by the action of 15-LO. The biosynthesis of 15-HEPE from EPA in guinea pig epidermal enzyme preparations has been documented.
