Abstract: | Summary Fatty acid constituents of two cheeses, four cured meats, and two hydrogenated oils were determined; two sets of data were
obtained for each sample. Unsaturated acids were determined spectrophotometrically in the total fatty acids prepared from
each fat, and saturated and unsaturated components were determined chemically and spectrophotometrically on each fraction
obtained from distilling the methyl esters prepared from the fats. Close agreement was obtained between the percentages of
unsaturated components found in distilled and non-distilled samples. Methyl esters of cheese fats were prepared without prior
distillation of steam-volatile acids; no separation of saturated and unsaturated components was made on any sample. Fatty
acid components were also converted to percent of each fatty acid in each food.
This research was supported in part by the U. S. Department of Agriculture through a contract sponsored by the Bureau of Human
Nutrition and Home Economics. |
