Cholesteryl palmitate (Standard)

Cholesteryl palmitate (Standard) is the analytical standard of Cholesteryl palmitate. This product is intended for research and analytical applications. Cholesteryl palmitate is the main cholesterol ester found in human blephariol and has been used to form a stable tear film to study amphiphilic block copolymers as surfactants for dry eye syndrome. Cholesteryl palmitate can be used as a predictor of fetal lung maturity. Cholesteryl palmitate can be used as a prognostic biomarker for chronic interstitial pneumonia.
