α-Tocopherol-[13C3] usage and description
β-Tocopherol-[13C3] is a stable isotope-labeled form of Vitamin E. This compound is synthesized by replacing three carbon atoms of the natural β-Tocopherol with the stable isotope ^13C. The stable isotope-labeled compound is used extensively in research and development activities to study the metabolism and absorption of Vitamin E in the human body.
Vitamin E is a fat-soluble vitamin that exists in eight different isomers, but β-Tocopherol is the most abundant and biologically active form. It is an important antioxidant that helps protect cells from damage caused by free radicals, which can lead to chronic diseases such as cancer, heart disease, and Alzheimerโs.
The stable isotope-labeled form of β-Tocopherol is used in metabolic studies to track the absorption, distribution, and excretion of Vitamin E in the human body. It is a valuable research tool to study the kinetics of Vitamin E in the body and to understand the metabolic pathways that are involved in its absorption and utilization.
Chemically, the stable isotope-labeled β-Tocopherol-[13C3] has a molecular weight of 423.67 g/mol. It is a yellowish or brownish oil that is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol, chloroform, and hexane. It is stable under normal conditions and can be stored for long periods without degradation. The stable isotope-labeled compound is commercially available from various chemical suppliers and is used extensively in research and development activities related to Vitamin E metabolism and absorption.
