Beschreibung

DL-2-Aminocaprylic acid is a fatty acid that is synthesized from lysine by the enzyme lysine decarboxylase. It is one of the major lipids in cancer cells, and its level can be used to measure the severity of a cancerous tumor. DL-2-Aminocaprylic acid has been shown to have antimicrobial properties against bacteria and fungi. This compound also possesses an inhibitory effect on the biosynthesis of polyunsaturated fatty acids, which may contribute to its anticancer effects.
