    Product Description

    (±)8-HETE is one of the six monohydroxy fatty acids produced by the non-enzymatic oxidation of arachidonic acid (Item No. 90010). The biological activity of (±)8-HETE is likely to resemble that of its constituent enantiomers (8(R)-HETE Item No. 34350 and 8(S)-HETE Item No. 34360).

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
