Elaidic acid is a trans fatty acid, specifically the trans isomer of oleic acid. It is primarily found in partially hydrogenated vegetable oils, which are often used in processed foods to enhance shelf life and stability. Unlike its cis counterpart, oleic acid, elaidic acid has been associated with adverse health effects, including an increased risk of cardiovascular disease, inflammation, and insulin resistance. Structurally, elaidic acid features a double bond in the trans configuration, which contributes to its linear shape and distinct physical properties, such as a higher melting point.

At MtoZ Biolabs, we provide a comprehensive elaidic acid analysis service using our advanced mass spectrometry platforms. Our goal is to help researchers and industries accurately quantify elaidic acid in different samples, providing reliable data for pathophysiological studies, food safety, and product development.
Our elaidic acid analysis service applies the advanced ultra-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) platform. This platform allows the precise separation, identification, and quantification of elaidic acid. Our sample preparation process includes lipid extraction, sample purification, and derivatization to enhance the detection sensitivity.
