Product Description

Negative control for C8-Ceramide

Product Properties

• Molecular Weight: 427.71
• Purity: >98% by TLC NMR (Conforms)
• Form: White to off-white solid

Application Notes

• Application Notes: C8-dihydroceramide is a cell permeable, saturated ceramide analog. Unlike C8-Cer it does not stimulate ceramide-activated protein kinase1 nor does it induce apoptosis2 and therefore may be used as a negative control in experiments focused on the cellular activity of C8-ceramide3. C8-dhCer is a substrate for dihydroceramide desaturase.4
