Cholesteryl stearate

Description:

Cholesteryl stearate is an ester formed from cholesterol and stearic acid, characterized by its hydrophobic nature and solid-state at room temperature. It appears as a white to off-white powder or crystalline solid. This compound is primarily used in pharmaceutical formulations, particularly in drug delivery systems, due to its biocompatibility and ability to form lipid bilayers. Cholesteryl stearate exhibits low solubility in water but is soluble in organic solvents such as chloroform and ethanol. Its melting point is relatively high, reflecting its lipid-like properties. The substance plays a role in stabilizing emulsions and can influence the release rates of active pharmaceutical ingredients. Additionally, cholesteryl stearate is studied for its potential applications in cosmetic formulations and as a component in various lipid-based delivery systems. Its safety profile is generally favorable, but like all chemical substances, it should be handled with appropriate safety measures in laboratory and industrial settings.

Cholest-5-en-3-β-yl octadecanoate

Controlled Product

CAS: 35602-69-8

Cholest-5-en-3-b-yl octadecanoate is a lipophilic fatty acid ester that is used as an absorption enhancer in pharmaceutical preparations. The compound has been shown to increase the solubility of poorly water soluble drugs and promote their absorption through the skin. It has also been shown to be effective in reducing subcutaneous tumour growth when applied topically to human skin as a lipid film, which may be due to its ability to activate lipolytic enzymes and stimulate fat uptake by cells. Cholest-5-en-3-b-yl octadecanoate is chemically similar to sulfanilamide, which inhibits bacterial growth by inhibiting the synthesis of folic acid.
