Our DLPC achieves ≥99% high purity via full synthetic production, free of natural impurities and harmful additives.
Its short C12 saturated fatty acid chains endow the lipid with moderate membrane fluidity, enabling stable formation of liposomes, micelles and artificial lipid membranes.
Compared with long-chain phospholipids, DLPC boasts better solvent solubility and more uniform dispersion, ensuring stable and repeatable experimental and production results, and fully meets international pharmaceutical and chemical raw material standards.

Main Applications

With stable structure and excellent membrane-forming ability, DLPC is a versatile biomedical lipid material, mainly applied in the following fields:
  • Liposome Drug Delivery: A core carrier material for preparing liposomal formulations, widely used for encapsulating small-molecule drugs and nucleic acids to optimize encapsulation efficiency and controlled drug release.
  • Life Science Research: A standard model phospholipid for cell membrane simulation, lipid membrane structure and lipid-protein interaction research.
  • Biomaterials & Cosmetics: Used for bionic membrane materials and skin repair formulations, serving as a high-end raw material with good biocompatibility and emulsifying properties.
  • In Vitro Diagnostics: Applied in lipid-based diagnostic reagents and biosensors to deliver stable and reliable detection performance.

Storage & Transportation Specifications

To guarantee stable quality, DLPC requires professional low-temperature preservation.
Store sealed at ≤-20°C in a dry and dark environment, and avoid repeated freezing-thawing to prevent lipid oxidation.
Long-distance transportation adopts dry ice cold chain to maintain product purity and structural stability throughout transit.
