Arachidic acid-d4（Cat No.:I043749）is a deuterated form of arachidic acid, where four hydrogen atoms are replaced by deuterium isotopes. Arachidic acid is a long-chain saturated fatty acid commonly found in plants and animals. The deuteration of arachidic acid enhances its stability and makes it useful in various analytical and metabolic studies, particularly in mass spectrometry and tracer experiments. It is employed in research involving lipid metabolism, fatty acid pathways, and the study of lipid-protein interactions. Arachidic acid-d4 is also used in studies on the synthesis and behavior of fatty acids in biological systems.
