Description

Application

Glyceryl triheptadecanoate has been used:

• as an external standard in gas chromatography (GC) analysis for soybean seeds lipid extraction
• as an internal standard solution to correct the transesterification efficiency during lipid analysis by gas chromatography-flame ionization detector (GC-FID)
• as an internal standard in chloroform to dissolve total lipids obtained from fresh leaves of N. benthamiana for thin layer chromatography (TLC) analysis and to analyze their fatty acid content using GC
