Product overview

Description & Application

CL15F 7-5 is a piperidine-based ionizable lipid from the CL15F library, characterized by a symmetrically branched tail structure with a 7-carbon main chain and a 5-carbon side chain. This moderate tail length positions it between short-tail (e.g., CL15F 6-4) and long-tail (e.g., CL15F 14-12) variants, granting it a unique balance in mRNA delivery properties. Its LNPs exhibit optimized organ selectivity, enabling significant mRNA expression in both the spleen and muscle, as demonstrated by in vivo luciferase assays following intravenous and intramuscular administration. This lipid structure facilitates a favorable DSPC surface density on LNPs, which moderates interactions with serum proteins like ApoE, thereby reducing rapid hepatic clearance and promoting extrahepatic delivery. In vaccine applications, CL15F 7-5 LNPs encapsulating SARS-CoV-2 RBD mRNA elicited robust anti-RBD IgG titers and neutralizing antibodies in mice, outperforming the clinically benchmarked SM-102 lipid. The piperidine headgroup further contributes to storage stability by minimizing the generation of aldehyde impurities that can form mRNA-lipid adducts. Consequently, CL15F 7-5 represents a versatile lipid for developing stable, spleen-targeted mRNA vaccines and therapeutics, leveraging tail-length engineering for enhanced efficacy without complex formulation changes.

Handling guidance

Shipping, storage and sampling

How is the lipid shipped, and how should I store it?
We generally ship the neat (undissolved) lipid compound rather than an ethanol solution. The neat lipid is stable during transport with ice packs, and shipments originate from Shanghai. Pure form: store at −20 °C for up to 1 year. In solvent: store at −80 °C for up to 6 months or at −20 °C for up to 1 month. Keep sealed and protected from light. Avoid repeated thaw cycles for best results.
Pure lipid or solution — which should I choose?
Pure lipid is generally more stable during shipping and storage, so we usually recommend the pure form. A solution in ethanol or chloroform can be supplied when required by your workflow. Tell us the intended application, solvent and target concentration so the most suitable format can be confirmed.
How should I measure a small amount of oily or viscous lipid?
Ionizable lipids are often oily liquids or viscous semisolids, so material can be lost during repeated weighing or transfer. For a small pack, dissolve the entire quantity and aliquot it volumetrically. For example, add 1 mL ethanol to 25 mg lipid to prepare a 25 mg/mL stock, then use a pipette to withdraw the required amount. For quantities above 100 mg, direct weighing with an analytical balance may be more practical. Always confirm solvent compatibility and solubility first.
Can you support formulation optimization and scale-up?
Yes. Share the RNA cargo, target tissue, administration route, formulation method and assay plan. Our team can discuss starting molar ratios, N/P ratio and scale-up requirements for research workflows.
