(±)8-HEPE, CAS 99217-77-3

Product Description: (±)8-HEPE is produced by non-enzymatic oxidation of EPA. It contains equal amounts of (±)8-HEPE and 8(R)-HEPE. The ability of (±)8-HEPE to induce hatching of E. modestus and B. balanoides eggs is probably due to the presence of the 8(R) isomer within the racemic mixture.

Applications: Metabolism-protein/nucleotide metabolism

Formula: C20H30O3
