Description
C18 Dihydroceramide (d18:0/18:0) or N-Stearoylsphinganine is a synthetic lipid. Acylation of sphinganine with stearoyl (FA-CoA with C18 acyl chain) by dihydro ceramide synthase 1, yields C18-dihydroceramide.application：C18 Dihydroceramide (d18:0/18:0) has been used as a standard for the quantitation of sphingolipid metabolites in adipose tissues by quadrupole time-of-flight (Q-TOF) mass spectrometry
