Applications 1,2-Dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphorylethanolamine used in the synthesis ultra-thin membranes to facilitate the transfer of islets of Langerhans in the attenuation of early graft loss in avoidance of immunosuppressive therapy. Also used in the synthesis of immunoliposomes containing TAT cells for tumor cell internalization and cytotoxicity.

Applications Labelled all-cis-7,10,13,16,19-Docosapentaenoic Acid, also known as DPA, is a fatty acid derived from fish oils that potently inhibits platelet aggregation. DPA has been reported to block the cyclooxygenase pathway and stimulate the lipoxygenase pathway, which results in effective platelet aggregation inhibition. Peripheral blood mononuclear cell research demonstrates that DPA diminishes cyclooxygenase-2 levels intracellularly and inhibits pro-inflammatory prostaglandin E2 production.
