High purity arachidonic acid is a direct precursor for the synthesis of eicosanoid derivatives such as prostaglandins, thromboxanes and Leukotrienes. These bioactive substances play an important role in the cardiovascular system and immune system. The unsaturated fatty acid arachidonic acid, or ARA. It's an omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acid commonly found in our foods like beef, chicken, eggs, or fish. In general, we get about 100 to 200 milligrams of arachidonic acid per day. Arachidonic acid, one of the most active omega-6 fatty acids, plays an important role in nervous system development, immunity maintenance, memory/learning development, bone mineral density maintenance, islet health, and cardiovascular health. Arachidonic acid is common in terrestrial animal fats such as pork fat and tallow, but the content is not high, generally less than 1%. It is very rare in plant oils, only found in moss and fern seed oils. It is found mainly in Marine fish oil. It has been found that the content of arachidonic acid in adrenal phospholipid fatty acid of land animals (pigs, cattle) is more than 15%. In industry, AA is mainly produced by microbial fermentation, which is an important precursor for the synthesis of prostaglandins.

Character White to light yellow powder. Recent studies have reported that arachidonic acid and its metabolites, such as LTC4, can activate the heart and G protein-coupled K+ channels in a receptor-independent manner and regulate cardiac excitability in physiological and pathological conditions. 2. Participation in neuroendocrine Arachidonic acid can stimulate the secretion of anterior pituitary, placenta and mast cells, and participate in the regulation of the secretion of various hormones and neuropeptides in a variety of neuroendocrine tissues, such as oxytocin, vasopressin, insulin and glucagon. 3. Promoting cell division Arachidonic acid and its metabolites can promote cell division, and its metabolites have this effect in smooth muscle cells, fibroblasts and lymphocytes. 4. Inhibition of platelet aggregation arachidonic acid and its metabolites can cause vasodilation. Vascular endothelial cells are closely related to arachidonidase, which can release vasodilator factors, relax vascular smooth muscle and relax blood vessels under certain stimuli. Because of its physiological functions, arachidonic acid is widely used in cosmetics, medicine and food. Purpose Nutrient additive. Diazepam, anti-peptic ulcer and gastrointestinal dysfunction, acts on the uterus. Arachidonic acid is an important substance in the development of human brain and optic nerve, which plays an important role in enhancing intelligence and visual acuity. Arachidonic acid has a series of physiological activities such as esterifying cholesterol, increasing vascular elasticity, reducing blood viscosity and regulating blood cell function. Arachidonic acid plays an important role in preventing cardiovascular disease, diabetes and cancer.

The raw material for synthesis of prostaglandins. Regulate the permeability of human cell membrane. It is very important for the development of brain, nerve and optic nervous system in infants. It also plays an important role in the treatment of coronary heart disease, diabetes and prevention of cerebrovascular diseases.
