Biological Context
12-methyl Myristic acid is a methylated fatty acid that has been found in bacteria, dairy products, wild-caught and farm-raised saltwater fish, and mouse subcutaneous adipose tissue.1,2,3,4 In vitro, 12-methyl myristic acid (0.625-40 μg/ml) has antifouling activity, reducing larval settlement of H. elegans in a concentration-dependent manner.5 Levels of 12-methyl myristic acid are decreased in mice fed a high-fat diet compared to mice fed a standard diet.4 [Matreya, LLC.
