Abstract
ABSTRACT.A mixture of trilinolein isomers that contain one trans double bond was isolated from lightly processed carrots stored at low temperature in plastic bags. The mixture isolated was similar to the product synthesized from partial isomerization of trilinolein with the free radical isomerization catalyst p‐toluenesulfinic acid. Although the mixture contained at least 2 trilinolein isomers with c‐t and t‐c geometry, determination of the complete structure of the individual compounds was not possible because of the close similarity of their chromatographic properties. Under reduced oxygen storage conditions, significant quantities of unsaturated triglycerides with trans double bonds may be produced in lightly processed carrots by a nonenzymatic free radical rearrangement.
