(Z)-Methyl heptadec-10-enoate

(Z)-Methyl heptadec-10-enoate (Methyl cis-10-heptadecenoate; C17:1 methyl ester; Methyl Heptadecenoate) is a monounsaturated fatty acid methyl ester (FAME) that can be produced by the oleaginous yeasts Aureobasidium sp. LC112 and Clavispora lusitaniae LC126, and can be detected in the wax-free mealybug residues of grapevine-reared samples. (Z)-Methyl heptadec-10-enoate can be used in fatty acid methyl ester-related analytical studies^[1][2]. In Vitro:(Z)-Methyl heptadec-10-enoate (Methyl cis-10-heptadecenoate; C17:1 methyl ester; Methyl Heptadecenoate) (0.1 g sample; 90 min) was present at 1.542-3.124% in mealybug wax, eggmass wax, whole eggmass, whole mealybug, and mealybug without wax from Maconellicoccus hirsutus reared on potato sprouts, and at 0.147% in mealybug without wax from Maconellicoccus hirsutus reared on grapevines^[1].

(Z)-Methyl heptadec-10-enoate (25-100 g/L glycerol; 72 h) was produced by Aureobasidium sp. LC112 (181 and 57 μg/mL) and Clavispora lusitaniae LC126 (140 μg/mL) during glycerol-based cultivation^[2].
