    Product Description

    Myristic acid-13C3 is intended for use as an internal standard for the quantification of myristic acid (Item Nos. 13351 | 45445) by GC- or LC-MS. Myristic acid is a 14-carbon saturated fatty acid. It is incorporated into myristoyl-coenzyme A (myristoyl-CoA) and transferred by N-myristoyltransferase to the N-terminal glycine of certain proteins either during translation to modify protein activity or post-translationally in apoptotic cells.1,2

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
