Gas‐liquid chromatographic analysis of lactoylated monoglycerides

Abstract
This paper describes a method for analyzing gas‐liquid chromatograms of silylated monoglycerides (1) and lactoylated monoglycerides. A simple method for lactoylating a monoglyceride for the determination of the products formed is also revealed. Resolution of glycerides containing as many as five lactoyl groups is obtained.
