Description
Stearidonic acid (SDA) is an ω-3 fatty acid, sometimes called moroctic acid. It is biosynthesized from alpha-linolenic acid by the enzyme delta-6-desaturase. Natural sources of this fatty acid are the seed oils of hemp, blackcurrant, corn gromwell and echium, and the cyanobacterium Spirulina.

Uses
Stearidonic Acid
onic acid is present in small amounts in seed oils. A 18-carbon, ω-3 fatty acid which is a dietary precursor to eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). Stearidonic acid is present in small amounts in seed oils.
