Glyceride structure variation in soybean varieties: I. Stereospecific analysis

  • Published:
Lipids

Abstract

Stereospecific analysis of soybeans and related species showed that there was little palmitic or stearic acid on thesn-2-position, and thesn-1-position is consistently richer in palmitic, stearic, and linolenic acids than thesn-3-position. Thesn-3-position is enriched in oleic acid and thesn-2-position with linoleic. Plots of the percentage of fatty acids on the glycerol positions vs. the percentage in the whole oil revealed a soybean variety that had a deviant distribution that is probably genetically controlled.
