    Product Description

    1,3-Distearoyl glycerol is a diacylglycerol that contains stearic acid (Item No. 10011298) at the sn-1 and sn-3 positions. It has been found in wheat bran extract.1 1,3-Distearoyl glycerol has been used in the synthesis of prodrug forms of the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) ibuprofen, naproxen (Item No. 70290), and diclofenac (Item Nos. 70680 | 22983) that have reduced ulcerogenicity.2,3,4
