Collection: Complex Lipids

Complex Lipids — gathers glycosphingolipids and complex lipid compounds such as glycan-based ceramides and gangliosides, which combine lipid structures with branched carbohydrate chains. They act as cell membrane components and structural markers in cell surface biology studies.

Complex Lipids are used by researchers in glycobiology and membrane biology to study cell surface composition, receptor-ligand interactions, and the characterization of extracellular vesicles such as exosomes. Compounds such as glycan ceramides and gangliosides are often used as reference standards or comparison materials in lipidomic analysis and cell signaling studies.

Example products in this collection: TCI G0624 137896-85-6 Gb3 Ceramide, TCI G0422 1046791-63-2 Ganglioside GM3 (phyto-type), TCI G0593 SialylGb5 Ceramide, TCI G0509 158021-47-7 alpha-Galactosylceramide, TCI G0589 177475-60-4 Globo-H Ceramide.

Pay attention to purity, the stereochemical configuration of the glycan chain, and the physical form (solid or solution) that suits the analytical method or sample preparation used. All products are genuine Tokyo Chemical Industry (TCI) Japan products, with purity, packaging, and storage conditions listed on each item's page.
