Merck, 791646C-1MG, 18:1-d7 MG

General description
1-oleoyl(d7)-rac-glycerol (18:1-d7 MG) is a deuterated form of 18:1-MG, which is also called monoolein.
This deuterium labeled lipid is also available in a formulation of multiple lipid standards. The SPLASH™ LIPIDOMIX™ Standard includes all of the major lipid classes at ratios relative to human plasma, allowing one easy internal standard solution to be added to every sample.
Application
18:1-d7 MG or 1-oleoyl(d7)-rac-glycerol has been used as an isotope-labeled lipid standard for identification of lipids in mitochondria and lipid droplets samples using mass spectroscopy. It has also been used as an internal standard in ultra-high-performance supercritical fluid chromatography with quadrupole-time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UHPSFC/QTOF-MS) for quantification of pulmonary artery lipids from porcine.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Monoolein (18:1-MG ) serves as a substrate for the enzyme lipase and is a useful lipid additive for meso crystallization and a stabilizer of the lipidic cubic phase (LCP).
