Direct methylation of long‐chain fatty acids in feeds, digesta and faeces without prior extraction

Abstract: Four feeds, two duodenal digesta samples, two ileal digesta samples and two faecal samples were analysed in quintuplicate for their long-chain fatty acid content by a new method (direct methylation) whereby the dried samples were heated with benzene and 5 % w/v methanolic HCl in screw-capped bottles at 70°C for 2 h. The methyl esters, were extracted with hexane, purified by thin-layer chromatography, and measured by gas-liquid chromatography. The values obtained were compared with those obtained using an estab… Show more

“…After heating with benzene for 2 h at 70°C, Outen et al (103) quantified fatty acids with an accuracy similar to that of a conventional method (hexane extraction after basic hydrolysis and reaction with methanolic HCl) in feeds, digesta, and feces from sheep. Suitable results in mammalian tissues were also obtained by Shimasaki et al (82) using a similar method.…”

“…Different solvents have been used in performing in situ acid-based methods: hexane (100-102), tetrahydrofuran (79), benzene (74,75,79,103,104), toluene (75,77,79,105), and chloroform (75). Pentane, hexane, or isooctane were not beneficial when used to replace benzene (74), and benzene and toluene extracted FAME better than chloroform (75).…”

“…Fatty acid compositional analysis was carried out as previously described (23). Fatty acid methyl ester (FAME) peak identification was achieved by comparing the retention times to a standard mixture containing 48 species of FAME (Standard 463; Nu-Chek Pucp, Inc., Elysion, MN).…”
