Chemotaxonomy of the Rubiaceae family based on leaf fatty acid composition.

Fatty Acid Composition Analysis of Aerial Parts of Selected Salvia Species Growing in Iran and Chemotaxonomic Approach by Shoot Fatty Acid Composition

In this study, fatty acid (FA) composition of aerial parts of selected Salvia species from Iran was analyzed by Gas chromatography. The amount of FAs was quantified for leaf and shoot of species as mg per kg (mg/kg) of dry weight. The results showed that FA contents of aerial parts for studied plants varied significantly and changed between 73.05 and 739.50 mg/kg of dried weight. Caprylic (C8:0...

Chemotaxonomy of Actinobacteria

Actinobacterial classification was originally based largely on morphological observation; it is not adequate in itself to differentiate between many genera, because some are so sim‐ ilar morphologically, but differ from their diagnostic chemical composition. In search of reliable classification methods reflecting phylogenetic relationships, at least to the genus level, it has been demonstrated ...

Evaluation of Changes in Fatty Acid Composition in Three Different Varieties of Olives During the Course of Maturation

ABSTRACT: Olives belong to the family of olea europaea L. is a popular fruit tree. The fruit and the oil extracted from it is consumed worldwide particularly in the Mediterranean regions. In this study changes in the fatty acid composition of the oil extracted from olive fruit during the course of maturation is investigated. This work is concerned with the best harvesting point when oleic acid ...

Fatty acid composition, chemical composition and processing yield of traditional hot smoked common carp (Cyprinus carpio, L)

The main objective of this study was to describe the proper technological process of hot smoking of common carp as well as to determine the yield of the final product and also proximate and fatty acid composition of hot-smoked common carp meat. The average yield of smoked common carp was 82.19% based on weight of eviscerated and descaled fish or 47% based on weight of live fish. The smoking pro...
