Description and Uses

Cholesteryl oleate is a cholesterol ester. It has been used in the generation of nanoparticles and liposomes for drug delivery.

Cholesteryl oleate was used to study the ability of silicone hydrogel contact lenses to absorb tear lipids, cholesterol and cholesterol esters. It was also used in the development of amperometric cholesterol biosensors.
