Product Description: Linoleic Acid-d2 is the deuterium labeled Linoleic acid. Linoleic acid is a common polyunsaturated (PUFA) found in plant-based oils, nuts and seeds. Linoleic acid is a part of membrane phospholipids, and functions as a structural component to maintain a certain level of membrane fluidity of the transdermal water barrier of the epidermis. Linoleic acid induces red blood cells and hemoglobin damage via oxidative mechanism[1][2].
Applications: Metabolism-sugar/lipid metabolism
Formula: C18H30D2O2
