punicic acid

Punicic acid (Trichosanic acid) is a naturally occurring conjugated linolenic acid and polyunsaturated fatty acid that is anti-obesity and anti-diabetic through activation of PPARα, PPARβ, PPARγ, and inhibition of NF-κB; anti-inflammatory through inhibition of cyclooxygenase (COX) and lipoxygenase (LOX); improves neuroinflammation; and prevention of osteoporosis.

9(Z),11(E),13(Z)-Octadecatrienoic acid methyl ester, an isomer of 9(Z),11(E),13(E)-octadecatrienoic acid methyl ester and the methyl ester derivative of 9(Z),11(E),13(Z)-octadecatrienoic acid, serves as a standard for quantifying 9(Z),11(E),13(Z)-octadecatrienoic acid in wild growing pomegranate (P. granatum) seed oil [Matreya, LLC.
