Tricosanoic Acid ethyl ester, a long chain saturated fatty acid ethyl ester, is found in small quantities in liverwort, C. conicum. The free acid decreases the hemolytic activity of Staphylococcus aureus delta toxin on human erythrocytes. Both the ethyl ester and the free acid can be used as standards for analysis...

Estrogens direct the development of the female genotype in embryogenesis and at puberty. Estradiol is the major estrogen secreted by the premenopausal ovary. Estradiol benzoate is an estradiol analog which contains a benzyl ester at the C-3 position. It is often used in combination with a progestin to induce estrus...

Arachidonic acid-d11 contains 11 deuterium atoms at the 16, 16, 17, 17, 18, 18, 19, 19, 20, 20, and 20 positions. It is intended for use as an internal standard for the quantification of arachidonic acid (Cay-90010) by GC- or LC-mass spectrometry. Arachidonic acid is an essential fatty acid and a precursor for all...

The transcription factor peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor delta (PPARdelta) is a member of the superfamily of nuclear hormone receptors and is implicated both in lipid metabolism and in the regulation of genes with potential roles in neurotoxicity. GW 0742 is a selective PPARdelta agonist (EC50 = 1.1 nM)...
