CONJUGATEDDIENOICLINOLEICACID - Introduction
Conjugated linoleic acid is a fatty acid that belongs to the Omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acid family. Its chemical formula is C18H32O2 and its molecular weight is 280.45g/mol. Its molecular structure contains a carbon chain and two conjugated double bonds.
Conjugated linoleic acid is less present in the natural world and is mainly prepared by oxidizing oil. It has a variety of physiological activities, including anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidation, reducing blood lipid and increasing bone density. Therefore, conjugated linoleic acid is widely used in the field of health products and drugs.
Furazandiolone is another name. It is an isomer of conjugated linoleic acid. Its properties and uses are similar to conjugated linoleic acid.
octadecanoic acid is a specific isomer of conjugated linoleic acid, the chemical formula is C18H32O2, and contains two conjugated double bonds. Specifically, CIS-10, the TRANS-12-CONJUGATED LINOLEIC ACID means that two double bonds are located on the 10th and 12th carbon atoms of the molecular chain, and one double bond assumes a cis conformation and the other double bond assumes a trans conformation.
Octadecadienoic acid also has a variety of biological activities, including anti-cancer, regulating the immune system, reducing body fat, and improving cardiovascular health. It is widely used in the food and health care industry.
The conjugated linoleic acid can be prepared by chemical synthesis or extracted and isolated from natural oils and fats. Commonly used preparation methods include oxidation of fats and oils, phospholipase catalysis and microbial fermentation.
Regarding safety information, conjugated linoleic acid is a naturally occurring compound that is generally safe and non-toxic at regular levels. However, long-term intake of high doses may cause some side effects, such as elevated blood sugar, gastrointestinal discomfort and immune regulation disorders. Therefore, when using products with conjugated linoleic acid, it is recommended to follow the recommend dosage and follow the instructions of a doctor or dietitian.
