1,2-DITETRADECANOYL-SN-GLYCERO-3-[PHOSPHO-RAC-(1-GLYCEROL)] SODIUM SALT

Description:

1,2-Ditetradecanoyl-sn-glycero-3-[phospho-rac-(1-glycerol)] sodium salt, commonly referred to as DTG, is a phospholipid compound characterized by its amphiphilic nature, which allows it to interact with both hydrophilic and hydrophobic environments. This substance features a glycerol backbone with two long-chain fatty acid (tetradecanoyl) moieties and a phosphate group, contributing to its role in membrane formation and stability. The sodium salt form enhances its solubility in aqueous solutions, making it suitable for various biochemical applications, including drug delivery and as a component in liposomal formulations. DTG is often utilized in research related to cell membrane dynamics, lipid bilayer studies, and as a model compound in the investigation of membrane-associated processes. Its structural properties enable it to form vesicles and micelles, facilitating the encapsulation of hydrophobic drugs. Overall, DTG is significant in both pharmaceutical and biotechnological fields due to its versatile properties and functionality in mimicking biological membranes.
