    Product Description

    Stearoyl ethanolamide is a member of the family of fatty N-acyl ethanolamines collectively called anandamides. Stearoyl ethanolamide is the most abundant of several fatty acid ethanolamides produced by the PLD hydrolysis of mouse neuroblastoma cell membrane phospholipids.1 The specific role of stearoyl ethanolamide in the cannabinergic system is still to be elucidated.

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
