    Product Description

    1,2-Dilauroyl-rac-glycerol is a diacylglycerol that contains lauric acid (Item No. 10006626) at the sn-1 and sn-2 positions. It has been used as an internal standard for the quantification of diacylglycerols in rat desheathed sciatic nerves.1 Monomolecular films containing 1,2-dilauroyl-rac-glycerol have been used as substrates to measure the effects of surface pressure and pancreatic procolipase and colipase on the activity of porcine pancreatic lipase.2

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
