Product code: P19239
Tetradecylthioacetic Acid (TTA) is a synthetic fatty-acid analogue structurally related to saturated long-chain fatty acids. It is supplied as a high-purity raw material intended for use in specialised nutritional, research, and technical applications where precise specification, consistency, and traceability are required. The material is manufactured under tightly controlled conditions to ensure defined chemical identity and batch-to-batch uniformity. TTA is characterised by its resistance to beta-oxidation, distinguishing it from naturally occurring fatty acids and contributing to its interest in scientific and metabolic research contexts. While no specific UK or EU authorised health claims apply to tetradecylthioacetic acid, it is commonly referenced in advanced formulation development and investigational nutrition settings. Supplied as a stable solid with predictable handling characteristics, TTA is suitable for incorporation into controlled formulations, encapsulation systems, or further processing where technical accuracy is essential. Use of this ingredient should be carefully assessed for regulatory status and intended application, particularly in relation to food supplement or novel food requirements. Our Tetradecylthioacetic Acid is fully traceable and supplied with comprehensive technical documentation including specification, MSDS, and Certificate of Analysis. It reflects Cambridge Commodities’ commitment to quality, service, and innovation in highly specified and technically advanced ingredients.
