Arachidonic Acid

Short Description:

Arachidonic acid (ARA) belongs to the Omega 6 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid.From the ARA Structure, we can see it contains four carbon-carbon double bonds, a carbon-oxygen double bond, which is a highly unsaturated fatty acid.Arachidonic Acid (AA) is a polyunsaturated omega-6 fatty acid, essential for cellular signaling and metabolic processes. With the CAS No. 506-32-1 and molecular formula C₂₀H₃₂O₂, it serves as a critical precursor for prostaglandins, thromboxanes, and leukotrienes—key mediators in inflammation, immunity, and cardiovascular regulation .
