1-Octanol, a saturated fatty alcohol, functions as an inhibitor of T-type calcium channels (T-channels), showing an inhibitory concentration (IC50) of 4 μM for native T-currents[1]. Additionally, 1-Octanol is recognized for its potential as a biofuel, possessing diesel-like properties[2].

Pentacosanoic acid, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as very long-chain fatty acids.

trans-2-Undecenoic acid ((E)-Undec-2-enoic acid) ((E)-2-Undecenoic acid) is an α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acid characterized by acid dimers.

Sesamin is a selective delta 5 desaturase inhibitor in the biosynthesis of polyunsaturated fatty acids and is a lignan abundantly present in sesame oil. It has potent neuroprotective effects against cerebral ischemia.

Linoleic acid (9,12-octadecadienoic acid) is a naturally occurring polyunsaturated fatty acid found in animal and vegetable oils. Linoleic acid is an essential fatty acid that is part of membrane phospholipids.

Eicosapentaenoic Acid is an ω-3 fatty acid and an inhibitor of fatty acid synthase (FASN). Eicosapentaenoic Acid promotes DNA demethylation in the reexpression of the tumor suppressor gene CCAAT/ enhancer-binding protein δ (C/EBPδ). Eicosapentaenoic Acid activates the RAS/ERK/C/EBPβ pathway in U937 leukemia cells through demethylation of the CpG island of H-RAS intron 1. Eicosapentaenoic Acid promotes the relaxation of vascular smooth muscle cells and vasodilation.

Isophorone is a clear liquid that smells like peppermint. It can be dissolved in water and evaporates somewhat faster than water.

Adrenic Acid (cis-7,10,13,16-Docosatetraenoic acid) is a very-long-chain fatty acid present in blood and human myelin tissue.

Eicosadienoic acid is a rare, natural n-6 polyunsaturated fatty acid found mainly in animal tissues.

Levomenol ((-)-α-BISABOLOL) is a sesquiterpene alcohol that has been found in the essential oils of several aromatic plants, with exerts antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-apoptotic activities.

(Z)-2-decenoic acid (cis-dec-2-enoic acid) is an unsaturated short-chain fatty acid secreted by Pseudomonas aeruginosa. It can induce a dispersion response in biofilms formed by gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria and can also inhibit biofilm development.

Ethionamide (2-ethylthioisonicotinamide) is a nicotinamide derivative, with antibacterial activity, used to treat tuberculosis. Although the exact mechanism of action of ethionamide is unknown, it may inhibit the synthesis of mycolic acid, a saturated fatty acid found in the bacterial cell wall, thereby inhibiting bacterial cell wall synthesis. This eventually leads to bacterial cell wall disruption and cell lysis. Ethionamide may be bacteriostatic or bactericidal in action, depending on the concentration of the drug at the site of infection and the susceptibility of the organism involved.

Sodium caprate (Sodium decanoate) is the sodium salt of caproic acid, a 10-carbon saturated fatty acid. It has an amphiphilic character and can form liquid crystalline phases and micelles in an aqueous solution.

Palmitic acid (Cetylic acid) is a natural product, a common saturated fatty acid found in animals, plants and microorganisms. Palmitic acid has antitumor activity.

Decanedioic acid (Sebacinsaure) is a saturated, straight-chain naturally occurring dicarboxylic acid.

Myristic acid (Crodacid) , a 14 carbon saturated fatty acid, is a rare molecule in cells and is a substrate of some fatty acid desaturases. This compound has the ability to acylate proteins by covalently binding to the N-terminal glycine residues, in a process called N-terminal myristoylation. Myristoylation of substrate proteins by this fatty acid has the potential to activate and mediate many physiological pathways. Furthermore, saturated fatty acids have been reported to be essential for biological activities of lipopolysaccharides and have demonstrated the ability to induce expression of COX-2 and NFκB (nuclear factor κB) activation.

Tridecanoic acid (Tridecylic Acid) is a 13-carbon saturated fatty acid found in dairy products and also as a product of anaerobic biodegradation of n-hexadecane. It has been identified as a substrate of phospholipase A2.

Arachidic acid (Icosanoic Acid) is a saturated fatty acid found naturally in fish and vegetable oils (such as those from peanuts). It can also be formed by the hydrogenation of arachidonic acid. Diets rich in saturated fatty acids, such as arachidic acid, are known to increase serum low-density lipoproteins resulting in high blood cholesterol levels.

Nervonic acid (Selacholeic acid) is a long chain unsaturated fatty acid that is enriched in sphingomyelin. It consists of choline, sphingosine, phosphoric acid, and fatty acid. Nervonic acid may enhance the brain functions and prevent demyelination (Chemical Land21). Research shows that there is negative relationship between nervonic acid and obesity-related risk factors. Demyelination in adrenoleukodystrophy (ALD) is associated with an accumulation of very long chain saturated fatty acids stemming from a genetic defect in the peroxisomal beta oxidation system responsible for the chain shortening of these fatty acids. Sphingolipids from post mortem ALD brain have decreased levels of nervonic acid, 24:1(n-9), and increased levels of stearic acid, 18:0.

Docosanoic acid (Behenic Acid) is a long-chain saturated fatty acid. It has been found in peanut and M. oleifera seed oils.

Lauric Acid (Dodecylic acid),which is found naturally in various plant and animal fats and oils, is a saturated medium-chain fatty acid with a 12-carbon backbone. It is a major component of coconut oil and palm kernel oil.

Palmitic acid sodium (Sodium palmitate) is a type of saturated fatty acid that is formed in fatty acid synthesis.Palmitic acid sodium promotes adipogenesis and cellular lipoatrophy in a variety of cell lines.

Pentadecylic acid, a saturated fatty acid, consists of a 15-carbon straight chain commonly found in dairy products and some plants and animals, with the molecular formula C15H30O2. [It has a melting point of 52.4°C (126.3°F)] and is utilized in biochemical research and the synthesis of various compounds.

1-Dodecanol, an endogenous metabolite and saturated fatty alcohol derived from coconut oil fatty acids, is characterized by a floral odor. It is utilized in detergents, Lepidopteran pheromone/sex attractant, lubricating oils, pesticides, and pharmaceuticals.
