Description:
Rats dosed orally which [carboxyl-14C]cyclopropanecarboxylic acid (or its hexadecyl ester) retain radioactivity in tissue as novel triacylglycerols. The most abundant 14C-labeled metabolites were identified by gas-liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry as 13-cyclopropyltridecanoic and 15-cyclopropylpentadecanoic acids. Similar omega-cyclopropyl fatty acids are produced by beagle dogs and a lactating cow, as well as by apple and orange trees.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Schooley, D A -- Quistad, G B -- Staiger, L E -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1978 Feb 3;199(4328):544-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/622554" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
