Stable isotope-labeled compounds are used as environmental pollutant standards for the detection of air, water, soil, sediment and food.
In addition to treating various diseases, isotopes are used for imaging, diagnosis, and newborn screening.
Small molecule compounds labeled with stable isotopes can be used as chemical reference for chemical identification, qualitative, quantitative, detection, etc. Various types of NMR solvents can be used to study the structure, reaction mechanism and reaction kinetics of compounds.
Stable isotope labeling allows researchers to study metabolic pathways in vivo in a safe manner.
BOC Sciences is committed to providing customers with the most comprehensive variety of isotope-labeled fatty acids & lipids available. All our off-the-shelf or customized isotope-labeled fatty acids and lipids products are supplied with quality analysis reports, and certain products are provided with NMR, MS, HPLC, GC, as well as other spectra and detection techniques. The isotope-labeled fatty acids and lipids we offer include saturated fatty acids (such as stearic acid, palmitic acid, etc.), unsaturated fatty acids (such as oleic acid, linoleic acid, linolenic acid, etc.) and phospholipids.
Lipids are an important class of biomolecules with structural diversity. Lipid compounds can provide rich information, such as the source of organic matter, which is significant for studying life activities, chemical processes, and environmental changes. Fatty acids are compounds composed of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen and are the main components of phospholipids. Fatty acids are divided into three categories: 1) saturated fatty acids that have no unsaturated bonds on their hydrocarbon chains; 2) monounsaturated fatty acids that have one unsaturated bond in the hydrocarbon chain; 3) polyunsaturated fatty acids that have multiple unsaturated bonds in their hydrocarbon chains.
With the development of isotopic technology, isotope-labeled fatty acids & lipids for biochemical research have received increasing recognition in the medical field. Isotope-labeled fatty acids can reveal organic matter’s recycling and energy flow pathways. Moreover, 13C-labeled fatty acids can be used to predict or detect heart disease and myocardial dysfunction, while isotope-labeled fatty acids & lipids can track changes in lipid synthesis, lipolysis, and fatty acid oxidation at different stages. Using various isotopic fatty acids and lipids, qualitative and quantitative analysis of lipid compounds and lipid metabolism-related substances can be achieved under different detection conditions.
