Preparation of Arachidonic acid: you can get mycelium by the fermentation and cultivating of white Mortierella alpina. Then please filtrate and squeeze. And you will obtain the product by purification, after use CO2 to extract.
Uses of Arachidonic acid: this chemical is a precursor in the production of eicosanoids. It is also used to produce the prostaglandins, prostacyclin, thromboxanes, and leukotrienes. Moreover, it is used in the biosynthesis of anandamide. The product is necessary for the repair and growth of skeletal muscle tissue. In addition, it can help to maintain hippocampal cell membrane fluidity and protect the brain from oxidative stress by activating perioxisomal proliferator-activated receptor-y. Furthermore, it can be used to produce Eicosa-5c,8c,11c,14c-tetraen-1-ol.
This reaction needs LiAlH4 and Diethyl ether at temperature of 10 °C for 30 min. The yield is 100 %.
