Polystyrene-based caprylic acid microencapsulation for thermal energy storage [PDF]
Solar Energy Materials and Solar Cells, 2017 Abstract In this study, caprylic (octanoic) acid microcapsules were synthesized with polystyrene shell material using the emulsion polymerization method. The influence of the type and concentration of the crosslinking agent on the phase-change properties of the microcapsules was examined.

Caprylic acid suppresses inflammation via TLR4/NF-κB signaling and improves atherosclerosis in ApoE-deficient mice [PDF]
Nutrition & Metabolism, 2019 Background As reported previously by our group, medium-chain triglycerides can ameliorate atherosclerosis. Given that TLR4 is closely related to atherosclerosis, we hypothesized herein that caprylic acid (C8:0) would suppress inflammation via TLR4/NF-κB ...

Caprylic acid and glyceryl trinitrate combination for eradication of biofilm. [PDF]
Antimicrob Agents Chemother, 2015 ABSTRACT There is a growing need for biocompatible, broad-spectrum, nonantibiotic, antimicrobial treatments because of the frequent ineffectiveness of antibiotics against biofilms and the increasing incidence of antibiotic resistance. In this study, we demonstrate rapid and complete biofilm eradication in an in vitro

The effects of different fatty acids on nesfatin-1, omentin-1, adropin, leptin and ghrelin levels
Medicine Science, 2023 There are many studies on nesfatin-1, omentin, adropin, leptin, and ghrelin. However, data on the effects of long, medium, and short chain fatty acids on serum/tissue concentrations of nesfatin-1, omentin, adropin, leptin, and ghrelin are scarce.
