Fatty acid distribution in glycerides of six fruit seed-fats

Abstract

Triacylglycerol fractions of total lipids from sapota (Acharas sapota), passion (Passiflora edulis), plum (Prunus domestica), cherry (Prunus cerasus), tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum), and chili (Capsicum annum) seeds, the 2-monoglycerides obtained from them by pancreatic lipase hydrolysis, and the fractions of triacyl glycerols sepd. based on unsatn. were all analyzed for fatty acid compn. The fatty acid distribution is discussed.
