Ethyl dihomo-gamma-linolenate is a metabolite produced by chain elongation of the essential fatty acid γ-linolenic acid. Ethyl dihomo-gamma-linolenate is an esterified version of the free acid which is less water soluble, but more amenable for the formulation of Ethyl dihomo-gamma-linolenatecontaining diets and dietary supplements.Ethyl dihomo-gamma-linolenate has been advanced as a possible treatment for various inflammatory disorders. Evening primrose oil is a Ethyl dihomo-gamma-linolenate nutraceutical which has been advocated for such uses.[Cayman Chemical]
