Fish Liver and Body Oils

Abstract: The chemical and physical characteristics and vitamin potency of thirty-nine fishThe E. L. Patch Company, Boston, Mass. liver and fish body oils have been determined. The chemical and physical charac-G. HOWARD SATTERFIELD teristics were tested by methods i n the U. S. Pharmacopoeia XI. The vitamin A potency was determined by the Hilger spectrophotometric, the Carr-Price colorimetric, or the U. S. P. XI biological assay method.The vitamin potency of the swordfish liver oils increased with increase in the amount… Show more

“…of vitamin D per 100 g.-round *about the higher limit found by us for herring oil: no information is given about the oil contents of the fish or as to the presence or absence of liver and gut oil. A recent paper by Holmes et al (1941) also gives some data for the-body oils of eel, sardine, herring, menhaden, and rose-fish. Figures of 5,000 to 20,000 I.U.…”

“…Vitamin A preparations are likely to be normal, however, if the following conditions obtain: (a) if in the ultraviolet absorption spectrum there is no fine structure (i.e., cycIised vitamin A absent) and no superimposed general absorption (i.e., absorption band symmetrical and persistent), and (b) if in the antimony tri chloride coIot:r test the maximum at 617 mft is well-defined, the value of E��o m. being nearly twice that at 580 mft (28).. Many of the difficulties arise from drastic processing and are likely to diminish in importance as the methods of working up fish livers improve (29,30).…”

“…A rapid and convenient method of estimating antioxidant potency was based on ultra-violet irradiation of a mixture of halibut liver oil and the antioxidant in chloroform solution and estimating the vitamin A difference by means of the antimony trichloride reac- 17). Mc-Kinney and Bailey (Oil & Soap 18, 147) tested 6 fats for their stability in baked goods, both under normal and accelerated conditions.…”
