7ß-Hydroxycholesterol-d7 is the deuterium labeled 7α-Hydroxycholesterol. 7β-Hydroxycholesterol is an oxysterol that derived by the oxidation of cholesterol. 7β-hydroxycholesterol is a powerful inducer of oxidative stress, inducing dysfunction of organelles (mitochondria, lysosomes and peroxisomes) that can cause cell death. Application:
7β-hydroxycholesterol-d7 has been used: as cholesterol oxidation product for mass spectroscopy analysis as an internal standard for spiking white adipose tissue and plasma samples for mass spectroscopy analysis as an internal standard working solution in gas chromatography- triple-quadrupole mass spectrometry as an isotopically labeled internal standard in tandem mass spectroscopy analysis for plasma sterol quantification
