Branched and Straight Chain Fatty Acids Comparison

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Three branched chain fatty acids were tested in this study (Table 1) . Of these, 2-ethylhexanoic acid (iso-C8) was from KH Neochem Co., Ltd., Japan.
2-butyloctanoic acid (iso-C12) was bought from Fujifilm Wako Pure Chemical Corporation, Japan, and isopalmitic acid (iso-C16) was from Nissan Chemical Corporation, Japan. We used 100% of branched chain fatty acids (iso-C8: 6.2×10 3 mM, iso-C12: 4.0×10 3 mM, iso-C16: 3.2×10 3 mM) in the tests. Three straight chain fatty acids were tested in this study. Caprylic acid (C8) and lauric acid (C12) were obtained from Tokyo Chemical Industry Co., Ltd., Japan, while palmitic acid (C16) was purchased from Fujifilm Wako Pure Chemical Corporation, Japan. In the tests, we used straight chain fatty acids at 3.5×10 2 mM.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
