cis-Petroselinic acid is a monounsaturated fatty acid and isomer of oleic acid (Item No. 90260) that is a component of plant lipids.{39293} Arachidonic acid levels decrease, while linoleic acid levels increase, in the heart, liver, and blood of rats fed a diet containing petroselinic acid.{39294} It has been used in a composite membrane as a model of plant partitioning to study the uptake of hydrophobic organic contaminants and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons.{39293} It has also been used as a substrate for the synthesis of new sophorolipids, which could have biological activities similar to natural biosurfactants.{39292}
