Compositions of Lipids and Fatty Acids from Various Parts of the Brown Alga Undaria pinnatifida

  • Published:
Chemistry of Natural Compounds Aims and scope

The contents of total and separate classes of lipids and photosynthetic pigments from various anatomical parts of the brown alga U. pinnatifida were determined. Differences were found in the contents of separate lipid constituents. The maximum amount of free lipids was found in stipe (0.012% of moist mass); of bound lipids, in sporophylls (0.98% of moist mass). Polar lipids constituted a large part of the bound lipids with glyceroglycolipids and neutral lipids dominating. A total of 20 fatty acids with 5 unsaturated, 4 monounsaturated, and 11 polyunsaturated were determined. The last were greatest in thallus, stipe, and rhizoids; unsaturated acids, in sporophylls.
