Lauric Acid-d3 (Cat No.:C000862) is a deuterium-labeled form of lauric acid, a saturated fatty acid commonly found in coconut oil and other natural sources. The “d3” notation indicates that three hydrogen atoms in the molecule are replaced with deuterium, a stable isotope of hydrogen. This labeling is often used in research and analytical applications to trace and study metabolic pathways and lipid-related processes. Lauric Acid-d3 retains the chemical properties of lauric acid while allowing for precise isotope tracking in experiments. Its use contributes to a better understanding of lipid metabolism and related biological processes.
