Description
Decanoyl and octanoyl glycerides are mixed medium-chain glycerides identified by CAS number 73398-61-5. The material has a density of 0,95 g/cm³. Such glyceride mixtures are employed in solubility studies, lipid-based vehicle development, emulsion work, and as functional excipients or model lipids in research settings. This product from manufacturer Carl ROTH offers a practical mid-scale quantity for method development, process trials, and routine laboratory use without committing to bulk industrial drums. Density data support volumetric handling and formulation calculations, while the CAS assignment aids regulatory documentation and inventory coding. Suitable for teams working on lipid chemistry, oral or topical delivery prototypes, and related specialty chemical workflows. Store and handle according to standard laboratory practice for glyceride-type materials; cold storage conditions apply as indicated in the product features.

Questions about Decanoyl and octanoyl glycerides, 500 g
What is this article?
Decanoyl and octanoyl glycerides, 500 g is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Lipids, steroids & fatty acids, inside Biochemicals & reagents, in Microbiology lab supplies.
A lipid, a steroid or a fatty acid is specified by chain length, saturation and purity. Esters and free acids are different compounds. Many are supplied in a small amount under inert gas because they oxidise. The physical form, oil or powder, follows from the structure.
A biochemical is a molecule of life, sold as a reagent: an amino acid, a sugar, a nucleotide, a lipid, an enzyme, an antibiotic. The difference from a bulk chemical is that the use is a biological one, and the impurities that matter are the ones that change that use. An enzyme is specified by activity, not only by mass. An antibiotic is specified by potency. Papers are on PubMed. Structures are on PubChem. Strains and lines that consume these reagents are at ATCC.
