Ordering Information

Biological Activity

Methyl palmitate is a plant-derived fatty acid methyl ester that exhibits acaricidal activity and anti-inflammatory effects. It attenuates inflammatory responses through modulation of downstream signaling cascades, including the NF-kB pathway, thereby regulating the production of pro-inflammatory mediators. Additionally, methyl palmitate displays potent toxicity against agricultural pest species such as mites, supporting its biological activity as a natural pest control agent.

Solvent Solubility & Note
FAQ
Q: Why does a DMSO stock precipitate in media/saline?
A: It is caused by unheated aqueous media (supersaturation), local solvent shock, or incorrect mixing sequence.
How to fix it?
  • Preheat media/saline to 37°C.
  • Mix rapidly (pipette/vortex) upon addition.
  • For complex mixes, always add the aqueous phase last.
  • Re-dissolve minor precipitates with a 37°C water bath and sonication (≤30 min).
