Abstract
This paper summarizes representative values for the fatty acid composition of unprocessed vegetable fats, vegetable oils, and animal fats. The data for these unprocessed fats and oils are identical with those of the processed, but unhydrogenated fats and oils. Calculations to convert the fatty acid methyl ester data to grams fatty acid per 100 gm. food are discussed, and the converted data are presented in tabular form. Climatic and cultivar effects on the fatty acid composition of some of these oils are reviewed.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
