16-Azidohexadecanoic acid（Cat No.:I043389）is a fatty acid derivative with a 16-carbon chain (hexadecanoic acid) and an azide group (-N₃) attached to the terminal carbon. This compound is commonly used in biochemical research, particularly in the study of lipid-labeled molecules and cell membrane interactions. The azide group enables bioorthogonal chemistry, allowing for selective labeling, imaging, and covalent attachment to other molecules, without interfering with normal biological processes. It is frequently employed in lipidomics, chemical biology, and drug delivery research for tracking lipid interactions and facilitating targeted therapies.
