Docosahexaenoic Acid is one of the omega-3 fatty acids and is produced from linolenic acid. Docosahexaenoic Acid can be found in fish oils and is also found in high concentration in the retina, central nervous system and skin. Reagent grade, for research purpose.

Docosahexaenoic Acid Ethyl Ester is synthesized from DHA through the process of acylation with ethanol. Docosahexaenoic Acid Ethyl Ester is a biologically active form of docosahexaenoic acid, which is an omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid. It has been shown to have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties in animal studies, as well as improved brain functions. Reagent grade, for research purpose.

Docosahexaenoic Acid N-Succinimide is the succinimide analog of Docosahexaenoic Acid. The NHS ester can be used to label the primary amines (-NH2) of proteins, amine-modified oligonucleotides, and other amine-containing molecules. Reagent grade, for research purpose.

(All-Z)-7,10,13,16,19-Docosapentaenoic Acid Ethyl Ester is a biologically active form of docosahexaenoic acid, which is an omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid. (All-Z)-7,10,13,16,19-Docosapentaenoic Acid Ethyl Ester is synthesized from DHA through the process of acylation with ethanol. It has been shown to have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties in animal studies, as well as improved brain functions. Reagent grade, for research purpose.

1-O-Dodecyl-rac-glycerol is a triacylglycerol that contains lauryl acid at the sn-1 position and is an antibacterial agent known to stimulate autolysin activity. This autolysin stimulation is possibly a primary mechanism by which dodecylglycerol exerts its antibacterial activity. Reagent grade, for research purpose.

cis-8,11,14-Eicosatrienoic Acid Ethyl Ester is a fatty acid with three double bonds which is biosynthesized from linoleic acid. cis-8,11,14-Eicosatrienoic Acid Ethyl Ester fatty acid inhibits cell proliferation by inhibiting the synthesis of polyunsaturated fatty acids, which are required for cell division. Reagent grade, for research purpose.

cis-8,11,14-Eicosatrienoic Acid is a an elongation product of γ-linolenic acid (18:3) that is rapidly metabolized by fatty acid desaturases to produce arachidonic acid (20:4), which is found in the body and has been shown to reduce body mass index. The biological effects of cis-8,11,14-Eicosatrienoic acid are mediated through the production of prostaglandin H1, which has been shown to be an anti-inflammatory agent. cis-8,11,14-Eicosatrienoic acid also reduces bowel disease by modulating calcium binding and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in experimental models. Reagent grade, for research purpose.

Ethyl Arachidonate is commonly used as a source of exogenous arachidonic acid in vivo. It is one of the fatty acid ethyl esters that increase cytosolic Ca2+ concentration leading to pancreatic acinar cell injury due to excessive consumption of ethanol. The ethyl esterified version does not retain the ability to inhibit dopamine uptake, unlike the non ethyl esterified version. Reagent grade, for research purpose.

(E,E)-Farnesyl Bromide is a synthetic substrate that is used to study the enzyme guanine nucleotide-binding protein (G protein) in vitro. The bromide (Br) acts as a good leaving group for nucleophilic substitution reactions. Reagent grade, for research purpose.
