|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 16:0 | 16:1 | 18:0 | 18:1 | 18:2 | γ18:3 | α18:3 | 18:4 | |
| Control | 48.1 | 3.8 | 1.6 | 4.5 | 10.9 | 21.9 | 5.8 | 3.4 |
| Hydrogenated | 54.0 | 3.3 | 13.4 | 9.7 | 6.7 | 9.8 | 2.1 | 1.0 |
Membrane suspensions were hydrogenated for 5 min at 22°C (for details, see Materials and Methods). Data are averages of three experiments. The range of experimental deviations was within 0.5%.
