Description
Summary:By means of gas-liguid chromatography, a study was carried out on the composition of fatty acids in oils of a porpoise (Neomeris phocaenoides), and it was discovered that the content of higher branched chain fatty acids is so much as has never been observed in oils of higher animals. Most of these higher branched chain fatty acids exist as saturated. Calculating the equivalent chain lengths on gas-liquid chromatograms, it is considerd that these fatty acids are mostly of iso-series and partly anteiso-series of odd carbon number. スナメリ(Neomeris phocaenoides)脳油についてGLCによって脂肪酸組成をしらべた結果,脳油中には高等動物としては,ほかに類例のないほど多量の高級側鎻脂肪酸を検出した。またこれら脂肪酸の大部分は飽和脂肪酸として存在する. なおカスクロマトクラムのEquivalent Chain lengthより,これら高級側鎻脂肪酸の大部分はiso型に属し,そのほかに微量の奇数炭素数のanteiso型のものが含まれるものと考えることが出来る. 長崎大学水産学部研究報告, v.28, pp.161-165; 1969 departmental bulletin paper
