  • Published:
Lipids

Abstract

Fatty acid compositions of seed oils from three species of Bombacaceae, eleven from Malvaceae, and six from Sterculiaceae were determined. Each of the seed oils contains varying amounts of both malvalic and sterculic acids accompanied by one or both of the corresponding cyclopropane fatty acids. In addition, the seed oil ofPachira aquatic Aubl. (Bombacaeae) contains 12.8% α-hydroxysterculic acid.
