Tricosanoic acid
Tricosanoic acid is a long-chain fatty acid and shown to be a hair growth stimulant. Tricosanoic acid (23:0) could as internal standards in the quantitation of eicosapentaenoic (EPA) and docosahexaenoic (DHA) fatty acids.

Providing storage is as stated on the product vial and the vial is kept tightly sealed, the product can be stored for up to
24 months(2-8C).
Wherever possible, you should prepare and use solutions on the same day. However, if you need to make up stock solutions in advance, we recommend that you store the solution as aliquots in tightly sealed vials at -20C. Generally, these will be useable for up to two weeks. Before use, and prior to opening the vial we recommend that you allow your product to equilibrate to room temperature for at least 1 hour.

The packaging of the product may have turned upside down during transportation, resulting in the natural compounds adhering to the neck or cap of the vial. take the vial out of its packaging and gently shake to let the compounds fall to the bottom of the vial. for liquid products, centrifuge at 200-500 RPM to gather the liquid at the bottom of the vial. try to avoid loss or contamination during handling.

Nervonic acid versus tricosanoic acid as internal standards in quantitative gas chromatographic analyses of fish oil longer-chain n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid methyl esters.[Pubmed:
2150519]
Tricosanoic acid (23:0) and cis-15-tetracosenoic acid (nervonic acid, 24:1 n-9) were compared as choices suitable for use as internal standards in the quantitation of eicosapentaenoic (EPA) and docosahexaenoic (DHA) fatty acids.
METHODS AND RESULTS:
Experiments conducted included: (a) comparison of the flame ionisation detector responses of the two fatty acid methyl esters; (b) estimation of accurately weighed quantities of EPA and DHA using both 23:0 and 24:1 separately as internal standard; (c) determination of EPA and DHA contents of commercially available fish oil ethyl ester capsules using the two as internal standard. The results suggest that both 23:0 and 24:1 methyl esters behaved similarly in the flame ionization detector of the gas chromatograph and are comparable internal standards for use in quantitation of EPA and DHA. This includes the analysis of ethyl ester mixtures as long as interesterification of sample with solvent methanol is complete. The relatively poor solubility of the saturated 23:0 is countered by its greater stability. A possible drawback of 24:1 could be the presence of more than one positional isomer in either a 24:1n-9 standard or in the actual sample.
CONCLUSIONS:
In principle any fatty acid could serve as an internal standard as long as the limitations involved in the use of each are taken into account.

Structures of the high-temperature solid phases of the odd-numbered fatty acids from tridecanoic acid to tricosanoic acid.[Pubmed:
17212366]
Crystal structures of the high-temperature phases of odd-numbered fatty acids (C(n)H(2n-1)OOH) from tridecanoic acid (C(13)H(25)OOH) to Tricosanoic acid (C(23)H(45)OOH) are presented in this article.
METHODS AND RESULTS:
They have been determined from high-quality X-ray powder-diffraction patterns. Two types of high-temperature phases are adopted: one monoclinic A2/a with Z=8 for the fatty acids with n=13 and n=15, denoted as C'', and one monoclinic P2(1)/a with Z=4 for the longer-chain fatty acids, denoted as C'. It appears that the packing arrangement of the alkyl chains and of the carboxyl groups is similar in all of the structures. However, the arrangement at the methyl-group interface differs between the C' and C'' forms.
CONCLUSIONS:
A survey of the intermolecular interactions involved in these polymorphs coupled with a study of the effects of temperature on the structures have led us to a better understanding of the arrangement of the molecules within the high-temperature solid phases of odd-numbered fatty acids.
