Peak no. was shown in chromatograms of Fig. 2.
Retention time.
Number of carbon atoms: number of double bonds: position of double bonds, the position of first double bound.
Average = peak area in pooled sample/n; young age group: n = 5, middle age group: n = 6, old age group: n = 5, age-matched AMD group: n = 8. No statistics are provided due to only one pooled sample in each group.
