Palmitic acid-13C16 is the 13C-labeled Palmitic acid, a long-chain saturated fatty acid found in animals and plants. It can induce the expression of glucose-regulated protein 78 (GRP78) and CCAAT/enhancer binding protein homologous protein (CHOP) in mouse granulosa cells. This compound can be used as a tracer and as an internal standard for quantitative analysis by NMR, GC-MS, or LC-MS. Stable heavy isotopes are incorporated into drug molecules as tracers for quantitation during drug development, with deuteration potentially affecting pharmacokinetic and metabolic profiles.
