Docosahexaenoic Acid-d5 (DHA-d5) contains five deuterium atoms at the 21, 21, 22, 22 and 22 positions. It is intended for use as an internal standard for the quantification of DHA (Item No. 90310) by GC- or LC-mass spectrometry. DHA is an essential fatty acid and the most abundant ω-3 fatty acid in neural tissues, especially in the retina and brain. DHA constitutes as much as 40% of the total polyunsaturated fatty acid pool in retinal and neuronal membranes.{10297} Supplementation of dietary DHA using fish oil inhibits the progression of atherosclerosis and delays photoreceptor degeneration in retinitis pigmentosa.{1934} Neonatal DHA deprivation causes developmental defects and can lead to hypertension in rats.{8856}
