Abstract

A GC-MS method was developed for the determination of free fatty acids (FFAs) in the alcohol extract of Tie Bang Chui. Six major types of FFAs were identified. All the six FFAs identified in alcohol extract were quantified with nonadecanoic acid as an internal standard. The results showed that the alcohol extract was abundant in three types of FFAs, linoleic acid (38.14%, 8.49 ± 0.22 mg/g) was the predominant fatty acid, followed by palmitic acid and oleic acid, unsaturated FFAs amounted to 71.35% of the total FFA content, and there was no trans FFA present.
