Uses
Myristic acid-d27 is the deuterium labeled Myristic acid. Myristic acid is a saturated 14-carbon fatty acid occurring in most animal and vegetable fats, particularly butterfat and coconut, palm, and nutmeg oils.
Definition
ChEBI: Tetradecanoic-d27 acid is a C14 straight-chain saturated fatty acid where the aliphatic hydrogens have been replaced by deuterium atoms. It has a role as a bacterial metabolite and a fungal metabolite. It is a deuterated fatty acid, a long-chain fatty acid and a straight-chain saturated fatty acid. It is functionally related to a tetradecanoic acid.
