Description

Elaidic acid is the major trans fat found in hydrogenated vegetable oils and can be used as a pharmaceutical solvent.


Liquid


Elaidic acid is a 9-octadecenoic acid and the trans-isomer of oleic acid. It has a role as a food component. It is a conjugate acid of an elaidate and an Octadec-9-enoic acid anion. It derives from a hydride of a trans-octadec-9-ene.|An unsaturated fatty acid that is the most widely distributed and abundant fatty acid in nature. It is used commercially in the preparation of oleates and lotions, and as a pharmaceutical solvent. (Stedman, 26th ed)

Toxicity

In rat, oral LD50 74 g/kg and intravenous LD50 is 2.4 mg/kg. Dermal LD50 in guinea pig was >3000 mg/kg.

As with other fatty acids originating from adipose tissue stores, oleic acid may bind to serum albumin or remain unesterified in the blood.

Drug Information

Fatty acid uptake by different tissues may be mediated via passive diffusion to facilitated diffusion or a combination of both. Fatty acids taken up by tissues are then stored in the form of triglycerides or oxidized. Oleic acid was shown to penetrate rat skin. Following oral administration of Brucea javanica oil emulsion in rats, the time of oleic acid to reach peak plasma concentration was approximately 15.6 hours.|Following oral administration of trace amounts of oleic acid, less than 10% of total oleic acid was found to be eliminated via fecal excretion.|Radio-labelled oleic acid was detected in the heart, liver, lung, spleen, kidney, muscle, intestine, adrenal, blood, and lymph, and adipose, mucosal, and dental tissues. Oleic acid is primarily transported via the lymphatic system.|No pharmacokinetic data available.

Like most fatty acids, oleic acid may undergo oxidation via beta-oxidation and tricarboxylic acid cycle pathways of catabolism, where an additional isomerization reaction is required for the complete catabolism of oleic acid. Via a series of elongation and desaturation steps, oleic acid may be converted into longer chain eicosatrienoic and nervonic acid.

No pharmacokinetic data available.

Elaidic acid Use and Manufacturing

Uses

Elaidic acid is the 9-trans isomer of oleic acid. It is a monounsaturated trans-fatty acid which can be found in partially hydrogenated cooking oils. In human platelets incubated with arachidonic acid, elaidic acid inhibits HHT and HETE formation while inducing prostaglandin and thromboxane synthesis.
