| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Description]
2-hydroxy Myristic acid methyl ester is a rare hydroxylated fatty acid methyl ester that has been isolated from aquatic microbial sources. Levels of 2-hydroxy myristic acid methyl ester decrease to <1% in aquatic microbial communities after administration of the pesticide Atradex at a concentration of 245 mg/L.[Matreya, LLC. Catalog No. 1704] | [Uses]
Methyl 2-hydroxytetradecanoate (DL-α-Hydroxymyristic acid methyl ester) is an ester product. | [References]
