Octacosanol

Octacosan-1-ol is an ultra-long-chain primary fatty alcohol that is octacosane in which a hydrogen attached to one of the terminal carbons is replaced by a hydroxy group. Cholesterol-lowering effects, antiaggregatory properties, cytoprotective use, and ergogenic properties. pancreatic lipase inhibitory activity with an IC50 of 7.87 +/- 0.72 microg/mL (19 microM). OCT binds to pancreatic lipase with an affinity comparable to orlistat and stronger than that of 4-nitrophenyl palmitate
