Trisdecanoin
Trisdecanoin (Tricaprin; Glyceryl tridecanoate) is an orally available precursor of decanoic acid (DA precursor) that can be hydrolyzed to decanoic acid. Trisdecanoin and its metabolite capric acid not only provide the body with a quick source of energy, but can also affect lipid metabolism. Trisdecanoin is a major component of medium chain triglycerides (MCT), which has preventive or inhibitory properties for abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA), inhibition of cardiovascular disease, and anti-androgen (NSAA) and anti-hyperglycemic properties. Trisdecanoin can be used as an additive in food, medicine and cosmetics[1][2][3].
