Beschreibung

2-Hydroxystearic acid is a fatty acid that is found in natural fats and oils. It can be synthesized from stearic acid by the oxidation of the hydroxyl group to an alcohol. 2-Hydroxystearic acid has a hydroxyl group, which gives it hydrogen bonding ability. This chemical species can also react with an antimicrobial peptide, forming a complex that is more effective at killing bacteria than either component alone. The magnetic properties of 2-hydroxystearic acid make it an excellent candidate for use in magnetic particle imaging (MPI) to reveal structural information about brain tissue. 2-Hydroxystearic acid also has high values when chromatographically analyzed.
