Abstract
Three column chromatographic procedures for separating and recovering the galactolipids in fresh alfalfa extracts were compared. Silicic acid chromatography yielded pure fractions by thin-layer chromatography, infrared absorption, and chemical analysis. The carbon-Celite column gave the highest yield of monogalactodiglyceride. Of the 1.2% total lipids of fresh alfalfa, approximately 12% was monogalactodiglyceride and 8% was digalactodiglyceride. Linolenic acid accounted for about 90% of the total fatty acids in these components.This publication has 12 references indexed in Scilit:
