2'-Hydroxy-5'-nitrohexadecanamide

CAS: 60301-87-3

2'-Hydroxy-5'-nitrohexadecanamide is a synthetic fatty acid derivative that inhibits lysosomal hydrolase, which is an enzyme that breaks down cellular lipids. This compound can be used as a diagnostic agent for the detection of certain types of cancer. 2'-Hydroxy-5'-nitrohexadecanamide reacts with the magnesium ion in the lysosome to form an insoluble precipitate, which then settles to the bottom of the test tube, allowing for easy detection of cells with high levels of lysosomal hydrolase.
