Product Overview
Description:
1,2,3-Trimyristoyl glycerol is a symmetrical, saturated triacylglycerol composed of a core glycerol backbone esterified with three 14-carbon myristic acid chains. Extracted natively from botanical matrices, this lipophilic molecule serves as a critical structural lipid matrix for engineering stable solid core micro- and nanoparticles tailored to encapsulate oligonucleotides, peptides, or poorly soluble small-molecule drugs, while also serving as a defined biochemical substrate for profiling the chain-length selectivities of active lipases.
