Procedures are described for the isolation of free fatty aldehydes from total lipid extracts of rat, dog, and bovine heart muscle. These aldehydes did not arise from hydrolysis of the naturally occurring alkenyl ethers in either the extraction or isolation procedures.
The free fatty aldehydes were present in heart muscle in amounts between 0.27 and 0.56 µmole per 100 mg of lipid.
Hexadecanal and octadecanal are the principal free fatty aldehydes present, except in dog heart muscle where an unidentified, unusual aldehyde constitutes 20% of the mixture.
Supplementary key words free fatty aldehydes rat dog bovine heart muscle thin-layer chromatography p-nitrophenylhydrazones dimethyl acetals gas-liquid chromatography silicic acid column chromatography
