Product Information
1-Palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycerol (POG) is a naturally occurring fatty acid. It has been shown to be a potent antimicrobial agent against Staphylococcus aureus, with no activity against other bacteria. POG is synthesised from palmitoyl and oleic acid by the enzyme lipase. It is believed that POG inhibits bacterial growth by inhibiting the function of the enzyme lipase in the bacterium, which is required for the synthesis of long chain fatty acids. This inhibition prevents the production of cellular membrane components and membrane integrity, leading to cell death. POG has also been shown to have anti-inflammatory properties in human lung tissue samples, as well as a number of other benefits such as being used as an energy source and being helpful in weight loss and cardiovascular disease prevention.
