  <name>7-Hexadecenoic acid</name>
  <description>7z-palmitoleic acid, also known as (Z)-7-hexadecenoic acid or 16:1 cis7, is a member of the class of compounds known as long-chain fatty acids. Long-chain fatty acids are fatty acids with an aliphatic tail that contains between 13 and 21 carbon atoms. Thus, 7z-palmitoleic acid is considered to be a fatty acid lipid molecule. 7z-palmitoleic acid is practically insoluble (in water) and a weakly acidic compound (based on its pKa). 7z-palmitoleic acid can be found in peanut, which makes 7z-palmitoleic acid a potential biomarker for the consumption of this food product. 7z-palmitoleic acid can be found primarily in blood. </description>
