Erucate Analysis Service

Erucate, typically in the form of esters or salts derived from erucic acid, is a significant compound in various industrial and biological contexts. Erucic acid is a monounsaturated omega-9 fatty acid with the chemical formula C₂₂H₄₂O₂, predominantly found in oils such as rapeseed, mustard seed, and wallflower. It serves as a primary substrate in the synthesis of erucamide, a slip agent used in plastic bags and films. Its derivatives, including erucate, have widespread applications in the production of lubricants, surfactants, cosmetics, and as intermediates in organic synthesis. Erucate is a crucial component of numerous cellular processes. Moreover, erucate is also involved in the biofuel production process. Besides, aberrant levels of erucate have been linked to various pathological conditions, such as adrenoleukodystrophy and cancer, which makes its study invaluable in the biomedical research sector.
