Linolenic acid CAS 463-40-1 is a polyunsaturated fatty acid that is essential for a variety of biological functions.
1. Linolenic acid CAS 463-40-1 is an essential fatty acid, which means it cannot be synthesized in the human body and must be obtained through diet. It is essential for maintaining overall health.
2. Linolenic acid is a precursor to omega-3 fatty acids, which are known for their anti-inflammatory properties and heart health benefits. It can be converted into eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) in the body.
3. Consumption of linolenic acid CAS 463-40-1 is associated with a reduced risk of cardiovascular disease. It helps lower blood pressure, reduces cholesterol levels, and improves overall heart function.
4. Linolenic acid may help reduce inflammation in the body, which can be beneficial for conditions such as arthritis and other inflammatory diseases.
5. Linolenic acid CAS 463-40-1 is commonly used in skin care products to moisturize and help improve skin barrier function. It may help relieve symptoms such as eczema and dry skin.
6. Omega-3 fatty acids derived from linolenic acid are important for brain health and may help cognitive function and mental health.
7. Linolenic acid CAS 463-40-1 is found in various foods, especially flax seeds, chia seeds, walnuts and certain vegetable oils (such as flax seed oil and canola oil).
To store linolenic acid CAS 463-40-1 safely and effectively.
1. Store linolenic acid in airtight containers to protect against moisture and contamination. Use dark glass or high-density polyethylene (HDPE) containers to minimize light exposure, which can degrade the quality of linolenic acid.
2. Please store in a cool and dry place, away from direct sunlight and heat sources. Edible oils rich in linolenic acid CAS 463-40-1 are usually recommended to be refrigerated to extend the shelf life.
3. Linolenic acid should ideally be stored at low temperatures, typically between 4°C and 10°C (39°F and 50°F), especially in oily form. Avoid exposure to extreme temperatures or humidity.
4. Store Linolenic acid CAS 463-40-1 away from strong odors or chemicals as these may affect its stability or quality.
5. Make sure the container is clearly labeled with the contents and storage date.
6. Regularly inspect storage areas and containers for any signs of deterioration, such as odors or color changes.
