[1-14C]-tetracosanoic acid

[1-14C]-tetracosanoic acid is a long-chain radiolabeled fatty acid optimized for membrane lipid turnover and sphingolipid incorporation studies.
With its 24-carbon chain, it allows precise tracing of very-long-chain fatty acid metabolism and cellular lipid elongation.
Researchers employ this tracer to evaluate fatty acid biosynthesis, membrane remodeling, and enzyme activity in metabolic and pharmacological models.
