Metabolite Identification
Common NameGlucosylceramide (d18:1/12:0)
DescriptionGlucosylceramide (d18:1/12:0), also known as beta-glccer (C12) or C12 beta-glccer, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as glycosyl-n-acylsphingosines. Glycosyl-N-acylsphingosines are compounds containing a sphingosine linked to a simple glucosyl moiety. Glucosylceramide (d18:1/12:0) is an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa).
