Gas chromatography in combination with electron ionization mass spectrometry (GC/EI-MS) was used to determine the fatty acids of a membrane lipid from Bacillus megaterium. Special attention was put on the structure and absolute configuration of a monoenoic fatty acid previously

Two Bacillus subtilis mutants defective in branched-chain alpha-ketoacid dehydrogenase can grow when 2-methylbutyrate is provided in trypticase soy medium. Both enantiomers of the acid supported growth of the mutants but the (S)-(+)-isomer (natural) was more active than the (R)-(-)-isomer (unnatural).

Labeled 14-methylhexadecanoic acid was administered to normal rats, animals bearing the Walker 256 tumor at various stages of its growth and to tumor-resistant rats and its distribution in lipids (free fatty acids, triglycerides, phospholipids and cholesteryl esters) was studied during

Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) has been applied to study the effect of free hydroxylated and methyl-branched fatty acids on the physico-chemical properties of lipid membranes. First, the impact of free hydroxy fatty acids (HFAs) on dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine (DMPC) model membranes was
Saskia Thurnhofer et al.
Analytical chemistry, 79(12), 4696-4701 (2007-05-19)
Anteiso fatty acids (aFAs)-long-chain carboxylic acids with a methyl branch on the (n - 2)-carbon-are among the most simple fatty acids that are chiral. The most frequently occurring aFAs in food are 12-methyltetradecanoic acid (a15:0) and 14-methylhexadecanoic acid (a17:0), structures
