Abstract

Lipids from the skin of commercially processed broilers were extracted by Folch's technique and analyzed for fatty acids as their methyl esters by gas-liquid chromatography/mass pectrometry. Of the 24 fatty acids, identified, 5 had not been previously identified in either total chicken skin lipids or skin lipid fractions. They are: pentadecenoic acid (15:1), heptadecenoic acid (17:1), arachidic acid (20:0), heneicosanoic acid (21:0), and erucic acid (22:1).
