Description and Uses
Mead acid is an omega-9 fatty acid, first characterized by James F. Mead. Like some other omega-9 polyunsaturated fatty acids animals can make Mead acid de novo. Its elevated presence in the blood is an indication of essential fatty acid deficiency . Mead acid is found in large quantities in cartilage.
Mead Acid (20:3, n-9) is a precursor in biosynthesis of prostaglandins, thromboxanes and leukotrienes - anti-inflammatory.
