A literature review of the natural occurrence and effects of odd numbered fatty acids (CII to C3J in microorganisms, plants and animals is presented. Not only saturated and unsaturated odd numbered fatty acids but also unsaturated fatty acids with unusual position of double bonds seem to be ubiquito

β¦ Synopsis
Acetylenic compounds especially acetylenic fatty acids (Cl, to Cz1) were first of all identified in higher plants. Their structure is very different with regard to the number of the double and triple bonds per molecule, and the functional groups.
The mechanism of the biogenesis and the influencing factors are not definitely clarified. A side pathway of the biogenesis of the saturated fatty acids is supposed. Various physiological effects of the acetylenic fatty acids are presented.

Unsaturated even numbered fatty acids (Clo to C3J with uncommon position of the double bond (not w-3,6 or 9) belong to the unusual fatty acids. It seems, that these fatty acids are ubiquitous in small amounts in nature with priority of microorganisms and animal kingdom. Nearly all positions are poss
Many studies and surveys concerning the ocurrence and exposure of free 3-MCPD have been performed in the last 30 years. Although a huge number of food samples, especially fats and oils, were analysed in the last 3 years, no systematic study about ester-bound 3-MCPD and the resulting exposure was per
