Triolein (glyceryl trioleate) is a symmetrical triglyceride derived from glycerol and three units of the unsaturated fatty acid oleic acid. Most triglycerides are unsymmetrical, being derived from mixtures of fatty acids.

Triolein is a triglyceride derived from glycerin and three units of the fatty acid oleic acid. In cosmetics, it is used as a skin conditioning agent, and emollient. It exhibits many of the same characteristics as oleic acid itself.

Triolein is a triglyceride formed by esterification of the three hydroxy groups of glycerol with oleic acid. Triolein is one of the two components of Lorenzo's oil. It has a role as a plant metabolite and a Caenorhabditis elegans metabolite. It is functionally related to an oleic acid.

Triolein is a symmetrical triglyceride composed of glycerol and three units of the unsaturated fatty acid (i.e., oleic acid), which could influence the cell membrane and subsequently improve the gene transfer into the target cells.

Triolein has been incorporated as a helper lipid for cationic LNPs and has been used in combination with PCs to compose nanoemulsions in gene delivery [46]. As a general rule, a helper lipid should contribute to the stability of LNPs during synthesis and subsequent storage while promote destabilization once inside an endosome ( Fig. 1 ).

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has reviewed the safety of Tristearin and approved its use as a multipurpose additive for direct addition to food. The FDA has also approved the following ingredients for use as indirect food additives: Trilaurin, Trimyristin, Triolein, Tripalmitin, Tristearin and Glyceryl Triacetyl Hydroxystearate.

Triolein is a compound used in the 13/14 C-triolein breath test to assess fat absorption in the body. It is administered in a fat meal, and the amount of labelled carbon expiration in the breath indicates the level of fat malabsorption.

Glycerol trioleate also is known as triolein, is a monoacid triglyceride. It comes as a clear pale-yellow viscous liquid. It is manufactured by triglyceride by esterification of the oleic acid with the three hydroxy groups of glycerol. It is one of the components of Lorenzo oil.
