Palmitic Acid in Early Human Development

Critical Reviews in Food Science and Nutrition, 2015
Palmitic acid (16:0) is a saturated fatty acid present in the diet and synthesized endogenously. Although often considered to have adverse effects on chronic disease in adults, 16:0 is an essential component of membrane, secretory, and transport lipids, with crucial roles in protein palmitoylation and signal molecules.

[1-11C]Palmitic acid: Improved radiopharmaceutical preparation

The International Journal of Applied Radiation and Isotopes, 1982
A simple synthetic procedure and processing system for the routine preparation of [1-(11)C]palmitic acid via carbonation of n-pentadecylmagnesium bromide with [11C]carbon dioxide is described. The key feature of this improved synthesis is the facile separation of the 11C fatty acid from the radiolabeled and unlabeled by-products of the Grignard ...

Cytosol binding of retinyl palmitate and palmitic acid in pigment epithelium and retina

Experimental Eye Research, 1981
Abstract A 6S protein which binds [ 14 C]retinyl palmitate is present in the soluble fraction (cytosol) of the pigment epithelium but not the retina. There is no binding of [ 14 C]retinyl palmitate by the 2S retinol receptor in either the pigment epithelium or the retina. [ 14 C]Palmitic acid is bound to a peak at 6S in pigment epithelial cytosol and

Palmitic acid incorporation into intramuscular acylglycerols depends on both total and unbound to albumin palmitic acid concentration

Biochemistry and Cell Biology, 2003
Palmitic acid incorporation into the intramuscular acylglycerols in rat skeletal muscles of different fiber types was investigated at various total and unbound to albumin concentrations by means of the hind-limb perfusion technique. It was found that at simultaneously increasing total and unbound to albumin palmitic acid concentrations in the ...

Biosynthesis of Corynomycolic Acid from Two Molecules of Palmitic Acid

Nature, 1959
CORYNOMYCOLIC acid, C32H64O3, m.p. 70°, [α]D = + 7.5° has been isolated from the lipids of Corynebacterium diphtheriae 1 and C. ovis 2. Its structure (III, R = H) has been established by degradation3 and confirmed by synthesis: the condensation of two molecules of methyl palmitate (I, R = CH3) in presence of NaH gives the β-ketoester (II, R = CH3 ...

Twinning in palmitic acid crystals

Journal of Crystal Growth, 1985
Abstract Palmitic acid crystals are grown by slow evaporation of the solvent (methyl alcohol-acetone mixture). In addition to the elongated crystals, cross-like twins are also observed. A shift in the position of the legs in the cross-like twins is frequently observed.

K-like twins: Palmitic acid

Journal of Crystal Growth, 1987
Abstract Occurrence of K-like twins in palmitic acid crystals, when crystallized from methyl alcohol-acetone mixtures, is presented. The growth mechanism is discussed.

Catalytic hydrothermal deoxygenation of palmitic acid

Energy & Environmental Science, 2010
We herein report a new approach to convert fatty acids to hydrocarbons in near- or supercritical water. We tested several different metal salts, bases, and high-surface-area supported metal catalysts for activity toward deoxygenation of palmitic acid in a hydrothermal reaction medium.

Superhydrophobic palmitic acid modified ZnO nanoparticles

Ceramics International, 2017
Abstract A superhydrophobic coating material (PA-ZnO) with a static water contact angle (WCA)>160° has been synthesized by modifying zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles with room temperature stable palmitic acid (PA). ZnO nanoparticles (size ~ 24 nm) with hexagonal wurtzite structure are prepared by hydrothermal method.

Adsorption of palmitic acid on calcite

Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta, 1980
Abstract The adsorption of palmitic acid by calcite was determined as a function of palmitic acid concentration and salinity. Adsorption isotherms were generally of the S-type, indicating probable hydrophobic interaction of adsorbed species. The effect of increased salinity was to increase adsorption from 0–25 ppt, then to decrease adsorption from 25–
