Lauric acid, also known as dodecanoic acid, is a saturated medium-chain fatty acid with the chemical formula C₁₂H₂₄O₂. It is most commonly found in coconut oil, palm kernel oil, and milk, making it a significant component of dietary fats in many cultures. Lauric acid is notable for its antimicrobial properties, which have made it a popular ingredient in soaps, cosmetics, and healthcare products. In addition to its industrial uses, lauric acid plays a crucial role in the human diet and metabolism. Understanding lauric acid's role in metabolic pathways can provide insights into its influence on health, particularly in the context of lipid metabolism and energy balance.

At MtoZ Biolabs, we offer a comprehensive Lauric Acid Analysis Service utilizing advanced mass spectrometry technologies for accurate and high-resolution data. Our process begins with optimized sample preparation to efficiently extract and convert lauric acid for detection. We then perform gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), where the sample is vaporized, ionized, and the ions are separated by their mass-to-charge ratios. This detailed analysis allows us to precisely determine the molecular structure and quantity of lauric acid present in the sample, providing essential insights for research and industrial applications.
