Description
Stearidonic acid (6Z,9Z,12Z,15Z-Octadecatetraenoic acid) is an intermediate fatty acid in the biosynthetic pathway from α-linolenic acid to VLC ω-3 PUFA. The conversion efficiency of stearidonic acid is higher than that of alpha-linolenic acid. Increasing the intake of stearidonic acid can increase the content of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) in red blood cells. Stearidonic acid can also be isolated from methanolic extracts of the brown alga Brachyphyllum gracilis[1][2].

Chemical Information

Stearidonic Acid

All-cis-octadeca-6,9,12,15-tetraenoic acid is an octadecatetraenoic acid having four double bonds located at positions 6, 9, 12 and 15 (the all-cis-isomer). It has been isolated from Lithospermum officinale and fish oils. It has a role as a mouse metabolite, a plant metabolite and a Daphnia galeata metabolite. It is a long-chain fatty acid, an omega-3 fatty acid and an octadecatetraenoic acid. It is a conjugate acid of a (6Z,9Z,12Z,15Z)-octadecatetraenoate.
