Nisinic acid is a very long chain polyunsaturated omega-3 fatty acid, similar to docosahexaenoic acid (DHA).
The lipid name is 24:6 (n-3) and the chemical name is all-cis-6,9,12,15,18,21-tetracosahexaenoic acid.
Nisinic acid is not well studied, but polyunsaturated fatty acids even longer than DHA, nisinic acid included, may hold scientific promise.
Nisinic acid is a very long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid that is tetracosanoic acid having six double bonds located at positions 6, 9, 12, 15, 18 and 21 (the (6Z,9Z,12Z,15Z,18Z,21Z-isomer).
Nisinic acid is an omega-3 fatty acid and a tetracosahexaenoic acid.
Nisinic acid is a conjugate acid of a (6Z,9Z,12Z,15Z,18Z,21Z)-tetracosahexaenoate.
