    Product Description

    α-Linolenic acid-d5 (ALA-d5) is intended for use as an internal standard for the quantification of ALA (Item No. 90210) by GC- or LC-MS. ALA is an essential fatty acid found in leafy green vegetables. ALA, as part of a low saturated fat diet, helps prevent cardiovascular disease. ALA decreases blood pressure, serum cholesterol levels, and platelet aggregation.1
