Metabolite Identification
Common NameElaidic acid
DescriptionElaidic acid, also known as (9E)-octadecenoic acid, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as long-chain fatty acids. These are fatty acids with an aliphatic tail that contains between 13 and 21 carbon atoms. Elaidic acid is a very hydrophobic molecule, practically insoluble (in water), and relatively neutral. Elaidic acid is the major trans fat found in hydrogenated vegetable oils and occurs in small amounts in caprine and bovine milk (very roughly 0.1 % of the fatty acids) and some meats. It is the trans isomer of oleic acid. The name of the elaidinization reaction comes from elaidic acid. Elaidic acid increases CETP activity, which in turn raises VLDL and lowers HDL cholesterol (Wikipedia).
