Description
12-methyl Myristic acid methyl ester is a methylated fatty acid methyl ester that has been found in vermicomposts of cattle manure, carica papaya leaves, and cuticular wax of
K. africana. It is a volatile compound in lipid-lowering granulated tea. Levels of 12-methyl myristic acid methyl ester are decreased in
T. cruzi treated with nifurtimox compared to non-treated controls. [Matreya, LLC. Catalog No. 1612]
Uses
Methyl 12-Methyltetradecanoate is a methylated fatty acid methyl ester that has been found in vermicompost of cow dung, papaya leaves, and cuticle wax of K. africana. It is a volatile compound in lipid-reducing granule tea. The levels of methyl 12-methylmyristate were reduced in T. cruzi treated with nifurtimox compared to untreated controls.
