Description

Application
Erucic acid a monounsaturated fatty acid (MUFA) is isolated from the seed of Raphanus sativus L. Erucic acid can readily cross the blood-brain barrier (BBB) it has been reported to normalize the accumulation of very long-chain fatty acids in the brain. Erucic acid can improve cognitive impairment and be effective against dementia
