    Product Description

    TXB1 is produced in small amounts when DGLA is added to washed suspensions of human platelets, while the major metabolism of this 1-series fatty acid is via 12-lipoxygenase.1 However, when co-incubated with amounts of ethanol often found in intoxicated humans, the metabolism of DGLA shifts to an enhanced production of TXB1.1 Urinary TXB1 or its metabolites may thus be a specific biomarker of prior ethanol abuse.

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
