ERUCIC ACID

Product Description

Erucic acid, a 22-carbon monounsaturated fatty acid (22:1ω9), is found in rapeseed and mustard oils, and is also known as cis-13-docosenoic acid. It is a major component of rapeseed and mustard oils, and its presence has led to selective breeding for low-erucic acid varieties for food use. 

Application

Industrial Applications:

  • Lubricants: Erucic acid and its derivatives (like erucamide and erucate esters) are used in lubricants for continuous steel casting, formulated lubricants, and rubber additives. 
  • Surfactants: Amides of erucic acid are used as surfactants. 
  • Plastics and Polymers: Erucic acid can be used to produce nitrogen derivatives such as behenyl amine (a corrosion inhibitor) and disubstituted amides (plasticizers). 
  • Coatings: Erucic acid can be used in the production of coatings. 
  • Detergents: Erucic acid is used in the production of detergents. 
  • Cosmetics and Pharmaceuticals: Erucic acid is used in the production of cosmetics and pharmaceuticals. 
  • Ozonolysis: Oxidative ozonolysis of erucic acid produces dibasic acids like brassylic acid and monoacids like pelargonic acid. 
  • Nitrogen Derivatives: Erucic acid can be used to produce nitrogen derivatives such as behenyl amine, a corrosion inhibitor, and erucamide, a slip and antiblocking agent for plastic films. 
Dose
  • Remyelinating Effects: Erucic acid can be transformed into nervonic acid, a crucial element of myelin, which may be crucial for treating different demyelinating conditions. 
  • Antioxidant and Anti-inflammatory Effects: Erucic acid may have therapeutic roles in different neurodegenerative disorders. 
  • Adrenoleukodystrophy Treatment: Erucic acid is a fatty acid used in the treatment of Adrenoleukodystrophy. 
  • Neuro protective Effects: Erucic acid may act beneficial in Multiple Sclerosis and Alzheimer's disease. 
  • Myocardial Lipidosis: Erucic acid has demonstrated favorable effects in rodents, including ameliorating myocardial lipidosis (fat accumulation in the heart muscle). 
  • Cognitive Function: Erucic acid improves cognitive function. 
  • Huntington's Disease: Erucic acid has a part in Huntington's disease. 
  • Influenza A Virus Inhibition: Erucic acid inhibits influenza A virus.

PRECAUTION::

  • Consult with a doctor: If you have concerns about your erucic acid intake or potential health risks, consult with a healthcare professional. 
  • Limit high erucic acid oil consumption: Individuals, especially children, who consume high amounts of foods containing erucic acid should be cautious. 
  • Choose heart-healthy oils: Consider using alternate heart-healthy oils for cooking, such as canola, peanut, olive, soybean, or sunflower oil. 
  • Be aware of erucic acid content in food: Pay attention to the erucic acid content of edible oils and fats, especially those derived from rapeseed and mustard.
