Application:	Orientation-Dependent Photoconductivity of Quasi-2D Nanocrystal Self-Assemblies.: Investigating the photoconductivity properties of quasi-2D nanocrystals, this research demonstrates the influence of oleic acid in manipulating the orientation and enhancing the electronic properties of these nanomaterials (Ibrahem et al., 2024 ). Sequential gentle hydration increases encapsulation in model protocells.: Research in this article shows how oleic acid can be used to improve the encapsulation efficiency in model protocells, offering insights into the origins of cellular life (Gehlbach et al., 2024 ).
Disclaimer:	For R&D or non-EU Food use. Not for retail sale.
General description:	Oleic acid is a monounsaturated fatty acid mainly found in high quantity in olive oil, peanut oil, sunflower oil and canola oil.
