Heptadecanoic acid (Standard) is the standard substance of Heptadecanoic acid, and it is applicable for quantitative analysis, quality control, and related research in biochemical experiments. Heptadecanoic acid is a fatty acid of exogenous (primarily ruminant) origin. Many "odd" length long chain amino acids are derived from the consumption of dairy fats (milk and meat). Heptadecanoic acid constitutes 0.61% of milk fat and 0.83% of ruminant meat fat. The content of heptadecanoic acid in the subcutaneous adipose tissue of humans appears to be a good biological marker of long-term milk fat intake in free-living individuals in populations with high consumption of dairy products.

Isostearic acid (Isooctadecanoic acid) is an active ingredient in imiquimod formulations that promotes the entry of imiquimod or peripherally secreted cytokines into the brain, and can be used to induce psoriasis-like disease models.
