Distribution of Isometric Octadecenoic Fatty Acids in Milk Fat

The Butter Marketing Board, Hamilton Central, 4007 Queensland, Australia

ABSTRACT

Milk fat octadecenoic acids were isolated by preparative gas-liquid chromatography of their methyl esters and separated into cis and trans isomers by argentation thin-layer chromatography. The distribution of the double bonds in the two fractions was determined by reductive ozonolysis. Cis octadecenoic acids had double bonds in positions 6 to 14. The cis-9 isomer was the most abundant isomer representing approximately 95% of the total. Trans octadecenoic acids had double bonds in positions 6 to 16, the predominant isomer being trans-11 octadecenoic acid. Data illustrating the range of variation in the distribution of positional isomers of octadecenoic acid for herd milk fat and butter are presented. There was no obvious seasonal variation in the distribution pattern. Fat from perirenal and subcutaneous adipose tissue of a dairy cow had composition similar to that of butter samples.
