Conjugated linoleic acid generally refers to a mixture of two isomers of linoleic acid. One is CLA itself, designated C18:2, trans10,cis12 & the other is rumenic acid, 18:2, cis9,trans cis11.They both consist of a 17 carbon aliphatic (alkene) chain connected to a carboxylic acid functional group. Conjugation refers to a pair of double bonded carbons, cis or trans, that are separated by a single covalent bond. The image shows rumenic acid which along with CLA is a major constituent of cow milk.

Indigo Instruments has maintained a substantial inventory of genuine Cochranes of Oxford (Orbit) parts for 30+ years and are compatible with every molecular model kit we have sold. This level of quality may appear expensive but no parts support from other vendors costs even more.

Details

The image shows rumenic acid, a conjugated linoleic fatty acid, rendered in two different structural styles: Orbit-flexible & Orbit x-peg but this kit only comes with parts for the "flexible style" (top) as do the 68827W organic chemistry student set & 68847W organic chemistry class set.

The version below it, is done as Orbit x-peg and you will need extra parts (see below) or use our 68849W biochemistry class molecular model set.
