Illustration of ω and Δ annotation for the chemical structure of i -C 17:1 ω7 / 15-Me-C 16:1 Δ 9 .
The a ( i ) -notation for methyl branching describes the total number of C, while the Me-notation describes the number of C in the backbone. For sponge LCFAs, a mixture of both nomenclatures is, however, commonly used.
