    Product Description

    14(Z)-Eicosenoic acid is a monounsaturated fatty acid. It is found in small quantities in marine life including the sponge (Tedania dirhaphis) and goldfish (Carassius auratus).1,2 Potentially it could be the product of fatty acid chain elongation of 12(Z)-oleic acid.

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
