C16 Ceramide (d16:1, C16:0)
C16 Ceramide (d16:1, C16:0) is a bioactive sphingolipid that promotes the formation and thermal stabilization of ordered membrane domains, particularly in palmitoyl sphingomyelin and POPC bilayers. Found in human erythrocyte sphingomyelin, it is used in vitro to study lipid raft dynamics, membrane organization, and ceramide-mediated signaling pathways.
