Carbonyls in oxidizing fat. X. Quantitative differences in individual aldehydes isolated from autoxidized lard by mild methods of extraction

Abstract
Major aldehydes characteristic of the oxidation of the unsaturated fatty acids present in lard differed somewhat in proportions isolated by the mild methods of separation. This indicated an extra sensitivity of specific fatty acid primary oxidation products to conditions, and some deviation from the normal in the breakdown caused by the methods. Linolenate primary oxidation products showed the greatest sensitivity to separation conditions and the stage of oxidation. The mild methods differed in the amounts of individual aldehydes separated to a degree dependent on the stage of oxidation. These results favor the Girard T method for the isolation of free aldehydes from autoxidized lard.
