General description

4ME 16:0 Diether PE or 1,2-di-O-phytanyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine is a class of glycerophospholipids having two phytane chains attached to the sn-1 and sn-2 positions of the glycerol backbone by ether bonds. It has ethanolamine as the alcohol moiety, attached to the phosphate group.

Application

4ME 16:0 Diether PE or 1,2-di-O-phytanyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine is suitable:
  • for nanoformulation of liposomal docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and ghost (no DHA, control) liposomes
  • for the preparation of archaeal-like lipid bilayers to examine the effect of humidity and temperature on it
  • as an internal standard in tandem mass spectrometry/mass spectrometry/mass spectrometry (MS3) to study the effect on glycerophosphoethanolamine (GPEtn) species upon the exposure of human polymorphonuclear leukocytes to A23187 and granulocyte macrophage–colony-stimulating factor/formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine stimuli
  • as an internal standard in lipid extraction using methyl-tert-butylether (MTBE)/methanol protocol
