CAS 57-10-3: Ácido palmítico
Descripción:
Ácido palmítico, también conocido como ácido hexadecanoico, es un ácido graso saturado con la fórmula química C16H32O2. Es un sólido blanco y ceroso a temperatura ambiente y es uno de los ácidos grasos saturados más comunes que se encuentran en animales y plantas. Ácido palmítico se caracteriza por su larga cadena de hidrocarburos, que contribuye a sus propiedades hidrofóbicas, haciéndolo insoluble en agua pero soluble en disolventes orgánicos. Tiene un punto de fusión que le permite existir como un sólido a temperatura ambiente, y a menudo se utiliza en la producción de jabones, cosméticos y productos alimenticios. En sistemas biológicos, Ácido palmítico juega un papel crucial como componente de triglicéridos y fosfolípidos, sirviendo como fuente de energía y componente estructural de las membranas celulares. Además, está involucrado en varios procesos metabólicos y puede influir en el metabolismo de lípidos y la sensibilidad a la insulina. Su número CAS, 57-10-3, es un identificador único que facilita su identificación en bases de datos químicas y marcos regulatorios.

CAS:Palmitic acid is a saturated fatty acid, which is primarily sourced from natural oils and animal fats. It is a common component of palm oil and also found in butter, cheese, and meat. As a carboxylic acid, it consists of a 16-carbon chain and acts as a basic building block in higher lipids and glycerides. In terms of its mode of action, palmitic acid plays a critical role in lipid metabolism. It is a precursor for the synthesis of more complex lipids and contributes to the structure and function of cell membranes by providing necessary acyl chains that influence membrane fluidity and signaling pathways within the cell. Palmitic acid has diverse uses and applications across various scientific fields. In biochemistry, it is utilized in the study of lipid metabolism and energy production. In cellular biology, palmitic acid is used to investigate membrane dynamics and signaling. Additionally, it serves as a reference compound in the analysis of fatty acid content in food products and biological samples. As a component of surfactants and soaps, it also finds applications in industry, particularly in the formulation of cosmetics and personal care products.Fórmula:C16H32O2Pureza:Min. 95%Forma y color:White Clear LiquidPeso molecular:256.42 g/mol
