Product Information

• Name: Squalane - olive oil origin
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Squalane is a naturally occurring hydrocarbon classified as a saturated, liquid wax ester. Squalane is an oily liquid that is a colorless to yellowish clear liquid with a low viscosity and high boiling point. It has various biological properties, including the ability to act as an antioxidant and anti-inflammatory agent. Squalane can be used in the preparation of model systems for studying inorganic acid-catalyzed reactions, transfer reactions, and thermal expansion. It also has been shown to have glycoside derivatives, which are important in energy metabolism and transfer reactions. Squalane has been shown to inhibit protease activity by interfering with the enzyme's active site or binding to its surface.
