| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Description]
Arachidic acid methyl ester (Methyl arachidate) is an esterified form of arachidic acid. It is a natural compound and a leukotriene A4 hydrolase (LTA4H) inhibitor. It is a minor constituent of biodiesel generated from acid-catalyzed or subcritical water-subcritical methanol (SCW-SCM) in situ transesterification of dry activated sludge or sludge oil, respectively.
