Ricinoleic acid is a fatty acid that is found in castor oil. It is a monounsaturated omega-9 fatty acid with a hydroxyl functional group at the 12th carbon. Ricinoleic acid has anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties. Its presence in castor oil contributes to the oil′s lubricating and protective properties, making it a common ingredient in industrial applications. Ricinoleic acid is biosynthesized from oleic acid by the enzyme oleate 12-hydroxylase. Its presence in castor oil makes the oil a useful renewable resource for various industrial and commercial applications.
