Product Overview
Description:
Cholesteryl nervonate is a hydrophobic cholesterol ester formed through the covalent linkage of a core sterol backbone to the long-chain monounsaturated 24-carbon nervonic acid. Naturally occurring in glandular lipophilic secretions, this neutral lipid serves as an essential structural matrix component for engineering fluidic, biologically mimetic liposomal bilayers.
