Abstract

Abstract The distribution of oleic, linoleic, linolenic, petroselinic, hexadec‐9 and 11‐enoic, sterculic, four conjugated octadecatrienoic acids, isolinolenic, and octadeca‐6,9,12,15‐tetraenoic acid in vegetable triglycerides has been studied by hydrolysis with pancreatic lipase. The results, discussed in terms of a selectivity factor, indicate that these unsaturated acids do not compete equally for the secondary hydroxyl group.
