Abstract
An integrated system using chromatography on silica gel-impregnated glass paper, an internal standard and gas-liquid chromatography (GLC) makes possible the isolation of triglycerides, the determination of triglyceride, fatty acid composition, and the quantitative determination of triglyceride. Recoveries are good and values for total triglyceride obtained by this system compare favorably with values obtained by application of the hydroxamate colorimetric method to the triglyceride eluate from silicic acid columns. The fatty acid composition of the cholesteryl ester (CE) fraction is obtainable at the same time by GLC of methyl esters prepared from the CE fractions which also appears as a distinct spot on these chromatograms. Also, a densitometric method is described for triglyceride determination by photometry of the charred spots obtained after chromatography on the gel-paper.
