γ-Linolenic Acid Ethyl Ester Usage And Synthesis
Description
γ-
Uses
γ-Linolenic Acid Ethyl Ester is used in biological studies for neoplasm inhibition of cultured carcinoma cells of human breast. This analog is also used in the evaluation of hypocholesterolemic activity in rats by comparing it with γ-Linolenic Acid (L467660).
Definition
ChEBI: Gamma-Linolenic acid ethyl ester is a long-chain fatty acid ethyl ester.
Purification Methods
To highly purify γ-linolenic acid (GLA) from microbial lipids, various types of zeolites were investigated in a fixed-bed column system, where a two-step desoprtion operation mode was found to be superior in selective separation of GLA. By this system, GLA ethyl ester of 98 mol% purity was obtained from a mixture of various polysaturated and unsaturated fatty acid esters using cesium Y and methyl-, dimethyl- and ethylammonium Y zeolites[1].
