3-hydroxy Tridecanoic acid is a 13 carbon saturated fatty acid found in bacterial lipopolysaccharides (LPS). It can be used as an internal standard to detect markers of microorganisms in complex samples, including 3-hydroxy fatty acids found in LPS-containing bacteria and muramic acid found in bacterial cell wall peptidoglycan.
