1,3-Dimyristoyl-2-eicosapentaenoyl glycerol (MEM) is a triacylglycerol that contains myristic acid at the sn-1 and sn-3 positions and eicosapentaenoic acid at the sn-2 position. The myristoyl groups in MEM do not affect the oxidative stability of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) during long-term storage at 25°C.¹

1,3-Dimyristoyl-2-eicosapentaenoyl glycerol (MEM) is a triacylglycerol that contains myristic acid (HY-N2041) at the sn-1 and sn-3 positions and eicosapentaenoic acid at the sn-2 position. The myristoyl groups in MEM do not affect the oxidative stability of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) during long-term storage at 25°C.
