1,2-Dipalmitoleoyl-3-Palmitoyl-rac-glycerol

1,2-Dipalmitoleoyl-3-palmitoyl-rac-glycerol is a triacylglycerol that contains palmitoleic acid at the sn-1 and sn-2 positions and palmitic acid at the sn-3 position. It has been found in the fat body of male B. lapidaries bumblebees.¹

1,2-Dipalmitoleoyl-3-palmitoyl-rac-glycerol (1,2-Palmitolein-3-palmitin) is a triglyceride used for serum lipidomics analysis by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. This method can effectively separate and detect lipids in positive and negative ionization modes and has certain performance in the identification and characterization of serum triglycerides.
