    Product Description

    11(Z)-Vaccenic Acid methyl ester is a methyl ester form of the monounsaturated fatty acid cis-vaccenic acid (Item No. 20023). It inhibits sodium influx in mouse brain synaptic plasma membranes, which is positively correlated with an increase in the disordering of membrane lipids.1 It has been used as an internal standard for the quantification of cis-vaccenic acid in A. mollis by LC-MS and in hempseed oil by GC-MS.2,3

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
