General description
Glyceryl tripalmitate is a simple saturated glyceride. It is a solid present majorly in palm and coconut oil. It constitutes 1-11% of palm oil and has high melting temperature.
Application
Glyceryl tripalmitate has been used as a reference standard
- for the generation of calibration curve generation for the quantification of lipids from Azospirillum brasilense
- for the quantification of silk worm embryos and extraembryonic yolk lipids using thin layer chromatography
- for the quantification of triacylglycerol in Neochloris minuta microalgal cells
Biochem/physiol Actions
Glyceryl tripalmitate is a carrier molecule for effective drug delivery and is used solid lipid nanoparticle formulations.
