10-Hydroxyhexadecanoic acid

• Description:

  10-Hydroxyhexadecanoic acid is a hydroxy fatty acid found in Camembert cheese. 10-Hydroxyhexadecanoic acid can promote cholesterol efflux from ABCA1 and ABCG1, preventing the accumulation of excess cholesterol in cells. 10-Hydroxyhexadecanoic acid can be used in anti-atherosclerosis research[1].
