Cetyl palmitate, also known as hexadecyl hexadecanoate, is a naturally occurring waxy lipid used to formulate solid lipid nanoparticles (SLNs). SLNs are nano-sized particles composed of certain lipids, like waxes, that are solid at room and body temperature. SLNs are advantageous over other drug delivery systems due to the inherent biocompatibility of the materials used for formulation. Cetyl palmitate, in combination with other two-tailed lipids, has been effectively utilized for transfection as well as other types of drug delivery in a variety of cell lines.
