Abstract

Abstract The glyceride structure of a specimen of Erythrina indica seed fat was studied by azelao‐glyceride analysis techniques. The saturated acids amounted to 34 mol.‐% and no trisaturated glycerides could be detected. The triglycerides were composed of disaturated 27.1, monosaturated 48.3 and triunsaturated glycerides 24.6 mol.‐% as against 28.8, 44.4 and 26‐8%, respectively, required according to the Glyceride Type Distribution rule.
