    Product Description

    Arachidonic acid-d5 methyl ester is intended for use as an internal standard for the quantification of arachidonic acid methyl ester (Item No. 90014) by GC- or LC-MS. Arachidonic acid methyl ester is an esterified form of arachidonic acid (Item Nos. 90010 | 90010.1 | 10006607). It is commonly used as a reference standard for the quantification of arachidonic acid in biological samples and as a source of exogenous arachidonic acid in cells and in vivo.1,2,3,4
