Biological Activity

Tritetradecanoin is a natural triglyceride isolated from Myristica fragrans Houtt. that functions as an antiadhesion agent and lubricating agent. It modulates lipid membrane structure and surface tension, facilitating reduced cellular adhesion and smooth surface coating in biochemical applications. This compound is widely utilized in lipid-based formulation studies and anti-adhesive surface functionalization, serving as an effective structural lipid component in cellular and biomaterial research.

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).
