Abstract
A quantitative comparison was made of the fatty acid composition of a commercially rendered lard, a laboratory rendered lard, and a solvent extracted lard representing the same batch of pig tissue. The composition was determined by a preliminary separation of the methyl esters on a silicic acid column floowed by gasliquid chromatography of the fractions containing a known added amount of reference compound. This technique permitted estimation of the composition of each fraction and subsequent calculation of percentage of the minor as well as the major components in the original lard. It was concluded that the minor components were not artifacts produced in rendering.
