Metabolite Identification
Common NameGalactosylceramide (d18:1/20:0)
DescriptionGalactosylceramide (D18:1/20:0) belongs to the class of organic compounds known as glycosyl-n-acylsphingosines. Glycosyl-N-acylsphingosines are compounds containing a sphingosine linked to a simple glucosyl moiety. Galactosylceramide (D18:1/20:0) is possibly soluble (in water) and an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa).
