Arachidonic acid
|
A-122
|
1.0 mg/mL in Ethanol
A Certified Spiking Solution® suitable for use in mass spectrometry-based fatty acid testing applications such as assessment of cardiovascular disease risk and fatty acid deficiency, and detection and quantification of arachidonic acid in nutraceuticals and dietary supplements. Arachidonic acid (cis-5,8,11,14), sometimes referred to as AA or ARA, is a polyunsaturated omega-6 fatty acid. Studies suggests that ARA as well as other fatty acids can serve as biomarkers for cardiovascular disease, and nutritional and metabolic disorders.

Linoleic acid
|
L-040
|
2.0 mg/mL in Ethanol
Linoleic acid, a polyunsaturated omega-6 fatty acid, is a precursor arachidonic acid and is a critical nutrient for healthy human development. Levels of linoleic acid may be monitored by mass spectrometry-based methods to assess essential fatty acid deficiency (EFAD) and peroxisomal disorders. This Certified Spiking Solution® is suitable for use in GC-MS or LC-MS/MS fatty acid testing methods as starting materials in preparation of calibrators, controls and linearity standards.
