High-purity wax ester for biochemical modeling and lipid assay development. Palmityl Palmitate (Catalog #B2017938, 50 mg) is a biotechnology-grade wax ester composed of palmitic acid and palmityl alcohol. This highly pure powder is designed as a versatile molecular tool for biochemical and immunological research. Its well-defined molecular weight (480.85 g/mol) and stable form make it suitable for enzymatic studies, lipid-protein interaction assays, and model membrane systems.

This compound is especially useful in exploring lipid metabolism, surfactant preparation, and ester-linked biochemical reactions. Its purity and preparation under biotech-grade standards—using ultrapure water and filtration—ensure reproducibility across experiments and minimize background noise in sensitive assays. Researchers studying lipid signaling, fatty acid derivatives, or biophysical modeling rely on Palmityl Palmitate as a reference compound and as a reagent for constructing lipid delivery or stabilization systems.

Supplied as a powder and stored at 2–8 °C, it offers convenience and long-term stability. Bulk supply options are available to support scaling for high-throughput and longitudinal studies. As with all products from this line, it is strictly for Research Use Only (RUO) and not intended for clinical or therapeutic use.

Why researchers choose this product:

  • Wax ester derivative (palmitic acid + palmityl alcohol) with defined molecular weight
  • High-purity, biotechnology-grade preparation ensures reproducibility
  • Stable powder format supports dosing flexibility and extended shelf life
  • Applicable in lipid metabolism, enzyme assays, and biophysical research
  • Available in bulk quantities to support scaling and continuity

Indication for Use:
This product is for Research Use Only (RUO). It is not intended for diagnostic, therapeutic, or clinical applications.
