Common Name

Capric acid

Description

Capric acid, also known as decanoate or 10:0, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as medium-chain fatty acids. These are fatty acids with an aliphatic tail that contains between 4 and 12 carbon atoms. Capric acid exists as a solid, very hydrophobic, practically insoluble (in water), and relatively neutral molecule. Capric acid exists in all living species, ranging from bacteria to humans. Capric acid participates in a number of enzymatic reactions, within cattle. In particular, Capric acid can be biosynthesized from trans-dec-2-enoic acid through its interaction with the enzyme fatty acid synthase. enoyl reductase domain. In addition, Capric acid and malonic acid can be converted into 3-oxododecanoic acid through the action of the enzyme fatty acid synthase. Beta ketoacyl synthase domain. In cattle, capric acid is involved in the metabolic pathway called fatty acid biosynthesis pathway. Capric acid is a potentially toxic compound.
