Comparison of the LCFA constituents from literature, used substrate and intracellular storage compounds

Soybean oil [ 47 ] Soybean oil (this study) Intracellular storage (this study)
Percentage of LCFA mass
Oleic acid 23% 23% 25% ± 5%
Linoleic 53% 55% 50% ± 6%
α-Linolenic 8% 6% 7% ± 2%
Palmitic 11% 12% 11% ± 3%
Stearic 4% 4% 4% ± 2%

For the composition of the intracellular storage, the average and the standard deviation over a dataset of six individual samples are provided. LCFA, long chain fatty acid.
