Biological Context
14-methyl Palmitic acid methyl ester is a methylated fatty acid methyl ester that has been found in A. indica leaf extract, S. alboflavus TD-1, and as a minor component in biodiesel produced from C. sorokiniana microalgae.1,2,3 It is a volatile compound released by maize that reduces growth of F. verticillioides in a concentration-dependent manner.4 14-methyl Palmitic acid methyl ester has been used as a standard for the quantification of 14-methyl palmitic acid (Item No. 24820) in various foods by GC-MS.5 [Matreya, LLC. Catalog No. 1614]
