Biological Activity

[Description]:

Stearic acid-d7 is the deuterium labeled Stearic acid. Stearic acid is a long chain dietary saturated fatty acid which exists in many animal and vegetable fats and oils.

[In Vitro]

Stable heavy isotopes of hydrogen, carbon, and other elements have been incorporated into drug molecules, largely as tracers for quantitation during the drug development process. Deuteration has gained attention because of its potential to affect the pharmacokinetic and metabolic profiles of drugs[1].
