Chromatographic and mass spectrometric analysis of surface sediments from perennially ice-covered Lake Fryxell (McMurdo Dry Valleys, East Antarctica) enabled tentative identification from mass spectral data of previously unreported pentaunsaturated ketones, octatriacontapentaen-2-one (C38:5Me), nona...
