Hexacosanoic acid-d4 is intended for use as an internal standard for the quantification of hexacosanoic acid (Item No. 13354) by GC- or LC-MS. Hexacosanoic acid is a 26-carbon saturated (26:0) very-long-chain fatty acid (VLCFA). Plasma levels of hexacosanoic acid are increased in a mouse model of adrenoleukodystrophy, a peroxisomal disorder.1 Increased levels of hexacosanoic acid in red blood cells or in plasma positively correlate with atherosclerotic risk factors and metabolic syndrome, respectively.2,3
