Lipid Standards

Lipids, constitute a large group of organic compounds in living organisms that are insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents. Lipid metabolism plays a significant role in various diseases, particularly metabolic dysfunctions in conditions such as cancer, diabetes, obesity, chronic kidney diseases, neurodegenerative disorders, and liver ailments. MCE offers a variety of lipid analytical reference standard products that can be used for rapid screening to aid in your "lipid metabolism" research.
