In vitro incorporation of 1-14C nonanal-9-oic acid into plasma and human red blood cells lipids

Nonanal-9-oic acid is incorporated principally into plasma phospholipids, whereas oleic acid is incorporated into red cells. This incorporation does not require the presence of adenosine 5′-triphosphate and Coenzyme A and is carried out in the absence of red cells. the incorporation of nonanal-9-oic acid in blood lipids takes place in the first 10 min of incubation.
