1,2-Dihexanoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine(Cat No.:I041478)is a phospholipid molecule consisting of a glycerol backbone esterified with two hexanoyl groups (C6 fatty acid) at the 1 and 2 positions and a phosphocholine head group at the 3-position. This compound is commonly used in membrane biology and lipid bilayer studies due to its amphipathic nature. It mimics the structure of natural phospholipids and is utilized in research on membrane dynamics, liposome formation, and cellular signaling. It is also employed in drug delivery systems and as a model lipid in studies of lipid-protein interactions.
