Composition of the lipids in cabbage

  • Published:
Lipids

Abstract

Cabbage leaves contain 0.16% total lipids of which 51.02% are neutral lipids, 40.78% glycolipids, and 8.18% phospholipids. The predominant fatty acids in the total lipid analysis are linolenic, linoleic, oleic, palmitic, and stearic acids. Linolenic, palmitic, tridecanoic, and oleic are the principal components in the neutral lipid fraction while glycolipids are composed mainly of linolenic, palmitic, lauric, myristic, and tricosanoic acids. Phospholipids are high in palmitic, linolenic, and linoleic acids. Both glucose and galactose were observed in the glycolipid fraction.
