| Abstract | Linoleic acid (18:2 omega 6) and linolenic acid (18:3 omega 3) are precursors of two series of essential fatty acids (EFA) formed by alternate desaturations and elongations. In EFA deficiency (EFAD), oleic acid (18:1 omega 9) and palmitoleic acid (16:1 omega 7) undergo the same reactions to form polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) of other structures. Partially hydrogenated soybean oil (PHSO) contains isomeric 18:1 acids that can be converted to unusual isomers of 18:2 by liver microsomes. To test whether 18:2, 20:3, and 20:4 of unusual structure occur in phospholipids as a consequence of EFAD or ingestion of PHSO, rats were fed corn oil, an EFA-deficient diet, or PHSO to provide isomeric 18:1 acids. At 2.5 months the phospholipids were isolated from livers and converted to methyl esters, and the 18:2, 20:2, 20:3, and 20:4 fractions were isolated. The 18:2 and 20:2 fractions were ozonized, and, by using a computer solution of simultaneous equations, the structures and proportions of each isomer were calculated. The 20:3 and 20:4 fractions were analyzed by ozonolysis and capillary gas chromatography. When corn oil was fed, the major isomer in each group was 9,12-18:2, 11,14-20:2, 8,11,14-20:3, and 5,8,11,14-20:4. Patterns in EFAD- and PHSO-fed groups were more diverse, with large proportions of unusual isomers. Feeding EFA-deficient diet and PHSO induced measurable amounts of unusual PUFA at each step of the cascade, and these PUFA may compete in metabolism of normal PUFA and are substrates for oxidative formation of autacoids of unknown structures and function. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
