ω-3 Arachidonic Acid ethyl ester Usage And Synthesis

Uses

(All-Z)-8,11,14,17-Eicosatetraenoic Acid Ethyl Ester is an ethyl analog of (all-cis)-8,11,14,17-Eicosatetraenoic Acid (E477900) and it is used in biological studies for two-step enzymic synthesis of docosahexaenoic acid-rich symmetry structured triacylglycerols via 2-monoactlglyerols.

Definition

ChEBI: A long-chain fatty acid ethyl ester resulting from the formal condensation of the carboxy group of (8Z,11Z,14Z,17Z)-icosatetraenoic acid with the hydroxy group of ethanol.
