    Product Description

    Heptadecanoyl ethanolamide is a synthetic analog of PEA which incorporates an odd-numbered (17-carbon) fatty acid chain. This analog is unlikely to be present in any natural tissue, and so can be used as an internal standard for quantitative analysis. Heptadecanoyl ethanolamide potentiates the Ca2+ influx response to arachidonyl ethanolamide several fold in cells expressing human recombinant VR1.

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
