Notes: Nervonic acid (24:1n-9) (Item No. 13940) is a very long chain fatty acid produced by elongation of oleic acid (18:1n-9) (Item No. 90260) and derived from erucic acid (22:1n-9) (Item No. 90175).{21960} It is enriched in nervous tissue and is particularly abundant in sphingolipids, such as sphingomyelin in the myelin sheath of nerve fibers.{21957} Nervonic acid is poorly produced in demyelinating disorders, including multiple sclerosis and adrenoleukodystrophy, suggesting that dietary supplementation may be beneficial.{21959} Nervonic acid methyl ester is an ester version of the free acid which may be more suitable for the formulation of fatty acid-containing diets and dietary supplements.
