Cervonic acid

Harrison, K. Docosahexaenoic acid, DHA, cervonic acid, unsaturated fatty acid. 2(X)7. Available at http //www.3dchem.com/molecules.asp ID=379 (accessed 18/2/2(X)8). [Pg.190]

DHA, 22 6 (n-3), cervonic acid. This acid is abundant in fish oiis (e.g. tuna oil) and is a significant component of membrane iipids of most animal tissues especially in lipids of brain, sperm and the retina of the eye. Its presence in human milk fat is considered to be important for the healthy development of infant brain. It attains high levels in some microorganisms (Crypthecodinium cohnii, see Dhasco ). The level of docosahexaenoic acid in some fish oils can be raised by enzymic methods since many lipases discriminate against this acid. [Pg.64]
