Description and Uses

Pentadecanoic acid is a saturated fatty acid. Its molecular formula is CH3(CH2)13COOH. It is rare in nature, being found at the level of 1.2 % in the milk fat from cows . The butterfat in cows milk is its major dietary source and it is used as a marker for butterfat consumption. Pentadecanoic acid also occurs in hydrogenated mutton fat.
Pentadecanoic acid may increase mother-to-child transmission of HIV through breastfeeding.

Pentadecanoic acid is a saturated fatty acid. Pentadecanoic acid was utilized as a biomarker to examine for the intake of milk fat in relation to its metabolic risk factors. Pentadecanoic Acid that is also produced by certain plant species and acts as an toxic essential oil, which is known to exhibits potential anxiolytic, antinociceptive and antimicrobial properties.
