Description

Application
Arachidic acid has been used as a fatty acid standard[1][2]to optimize a sensitive high-performauce liquid chromatography (HPLC) method to analyse fatty acid (FA) for the quantification of polyunsaturated FAs (PUFAs) in cell lipid extracts.

Purpose
For R&D use onlynot for drug household or other uses.

General Description
Arachidonic acid (Icosanoic acid) a 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
