Product Information
10-Hydroxystearic Acid is an organic compound that is a fatty acid. It has been shown to be beneficial in the treatment of obesity and has been used in the treatment of stenotrophomonas maltophilia infections, which are often resistant to antibiotics. 10-Hydroxystearic Acid is synthesized by recombinant cells, which have been engineered to express the gene for this molecule. The fatty acid can also be produced by corynebacterium glutamicum when grown on a medium containing glucose as the sole carbon source. 10-Hydroxystearic Acid is formed from 10-hydroxydecanoic acid through dehydration and oxidation with copper chloride and hydrogen peroxide. In addition, 10-hydroxystearic acid has been shown to inhibit growth of Lactobacillus acidophilus, which may be due to its ability to block intermolecular hydrogen bonding.
