Arachidic acid, CAS 506-30-9

Product Description: Arachidonic acid (Icosanoic acid), an orally active long-chain fatty acid, is present in all mammalian cells, typically esterified to membrane phospholipids, and is one of the most abundant polyunsaturated fatty acids present in human tissue. Moreover, Arachidonic acid is an important mediator of inflammation[1][2][3].

Applications: Metabolism-sugar/lipid metabolism

Formula: C20H40O2
