Studies of some fatty oils

I. The seed of the tree Onguekoa Goro (Olacaceae) contains nine acetylanic C18 acids comprising three quarters of the total glyceride acids. Four of these acids also contain a hydroxyl group attached to C[sub](8). 8-hydroxyootadec-terns-11-on-9-ynoic aoid is isolated for the first ime from Santalum album seed oil. II. The stomach oil of the fulmar petrel (Fulmarus glacialis) is shown to be similar to a typical fish oil; acids containing 14-22 carbon atoms are present, including docosahoxaonoic and eicosapentaonoic acids. III. The classical method of analysis of the seed oils of the Umbelliferae was unsatisfactory and a more accurate method is now devised.
