Biological Activity
Branched fatty acid esters of hydroxy fatty acids (FAHFAs) are lipids that are modulated by dietary changes such as fasting and high-fat diets, and they play a role in insulin sensitivity. These compounds generally consist of a fatty acid chain of either 16 or 18 carbons (for example, palmitoleic, palmitic, oleic, or stearic acid) esterified to a similarly long hydroxy fatty acid. One specific FAHFA, 9-SAHSA, features stearic acid esterified at the 9th carbon of hydroxy stearic acid. The concentration of 9-SAHSA is notably increased in the serum of glucose-tolerant AG4OX mice, which specifically express the Glut4 glucose-transporting protein in adipose tissue.
Safety & Regulatory
For Research Use Only (RUO). Not for therapeutic, diagnostic, or clinical use. Wear appropriate PPE and consult the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) prior to handling.
Melted ice packs are generally not a concern for solid powder compounds, as the short transit period at ambient temperature does not typically affect compound integrity or potency. Powder form is inherently more stable than solution form during temperature fluctuations. Upon receipt, transfer the compound to −20 °C immediately. If you observe color change, odor, or physical changes, contact BioHippo for quality investigation.
sonication can accelerate dissolution. If the compound is not dissolving, sonication is recommended. If you don't have an ultrasound machine, a lower solvent concentration or using less powder are recommended.
Need this compound in a format that drops straight into your assay? We can tailor formulation, chemistry, and documentation so your results stay consistent across runs and re-orders.
- Format options: solid or pre-dissolved solution (choose solvent), target concentration, aliquots, light/moisture-protected packaging
- Chemistry options: free base/acid vs salt forms, hydrate/solvate preference, stereoisomer control (single enantiomer or racemate), close analogs
- Add-on labels & handles: D/¹³C/¹⁵N isotopes (LC-MS/internal standards), azide/alkyne or other functional handles for conjugation
- QC & documentation: standard COA or enhanced analytical pack (HPLC/LC-MS/NMR), chiral purity, residual solvents, water content (KF), method-specific specs
- Scale & continuity: mg to gram scale, bulk pricing, lot reservation, repeat-order continuity
To quote quickly, tell us: compound name + CAS/structure (SMILES or mol file), intended assay context, solvent preference, salt/stereochemistry requirements, purity/QC level, and the amount (mg–g).
