✦ Synopsis
Abstract
The following samples of biological origin were submitted to transesterification by means of methanolic hydrogen chloride, generated from methanol and acetyl chloride: triglycerides from black currant oil, butter, pig lard tissue, fat tissue of inner part of goose, lyophilized human blood plasma, larvae of fleshfly of the genus Sarcophaga, lipid A from Shigella dysenteriae, esters from beeswax and esters from the cuticular lipids of pea aphid Acyrthosiphon pisum. Attention was also paid to sterol esters and to free fatty acids. Conditions of transesterifications are discussed, as well as the conditions of gas chromatographic analysis of components after transesterification.

A simple, accurate and convenient method for simultaneously quantitating triglycerides, free fatty acids, and free and esterified cholesterols on a micro-sample of human serum is presented. The method involves the utilization of an automated thin-layer plate applicator which also eliminates the nece
The synthesis of [125I]-(E)-5-(2-iodovinyl)-2'-deoxyuridine [( 125I]IVDU) by a halogen isotope exchange reaction has been monitored in various reaction conditions. Quantitative incorporation of radioiodine into IVDU was obtained within 20 min by a simple and safe method that is suitable for applicat
A system was designed for chemiluminescent measurement of lipid hydroperoxides by their site-specific reaction in sodium dodecylsulfate micelles. Ferrous ion-induced decomposition of lipid hydroperoxides in the sodium dodecylsulfate micelles resulted in strong chemiluminescence of the Cypridina luci
13C NMR spectroscopy can be used for the quantitative analysis of mixtures of glycerides and the enantiomeric purity can be determined by using Eu(hfbc),-d reagent. This technique was applied to the study of the reaction mixture obtained from the transesterification of tributyrin catalysed by My-lip
