LIPIDS OF THE FIN WHALE (BALAENOPTERA PHYSALUS) FROM NORTH ATLANTIC WATERS: II. FATTY ACID COMPOSITION OF THE LIVER LIPIDS AND GAS–LIQUID CHROMATOGRAPHIC EVIDENCE FOR THE OCCURRENCE OF 5,8,11,14-NONADECATETRAENOIC ACID

Abstract
The fatty acid composition of the liver lipids of the fin whale (Balaenoptera physalus) closely resembles that of terrestrial mammals. Gas–liquid chromatographic evidence indicates that 5,8,11,14-nonadecatetraenoic acid is present, and the origin of this acid in association with 5,8,11,14-eicosatetraenoic acid is discussed.This publication has 21 references indexed in Scilit:
