DESCRIPTION:
This book will serve as a reference manual for a new generation of lipid scientist and researchers. Fatty Acids: Chemistry, Synthesis, and Applications presents information on industrially important fatty acids, their chemistry and synthesis, chemistry of trans fatty acids, reliable and efficient methods of synthesis of dietary trans fatty acids, advancement in their analytical methodology, enzymatic and chemical synthesis of fatty acids and derivatives as industrial raw materials, synthesis of fatty acid esters for the production of biodiesel and NMR and mass spectrometry of fatty acids and other derivatives.This new book is a key source of information on fatty acids chemistry and technology, including biological significance of some of the natural fatty acids. Useful for oleochemical industries and a valuable teaching resource for undergraduate and graduate students interested in the field of chemistry of oils, fats, and fatty acids and food chemistry.Includes recent developments in the synthesis of fatty acid derivatives as renewable raw materials for the chemical industryPresents efficient synthetic methods for the dietary trans fatty acids in multi-gram scale, allowing scientists and researchers to study dietary effects of individual trans fatty acids on human healthAddresses uses of fats and fatty acids in foods and nutrition
