Abstract
The alkyl moieties in wax esters and alkyl diacyl glycerols from the liver of the dogfish, soupfin shark, and silky shark are almost exclusively saturated and monounsaturated, the main alkyl moieties being the C(16) and C(18) chains in both lipid classes. However, the alkyl moieties in wax esters occur in a wider range of chain lengths. The unsaturated alkyl moieties in the two classes of lipids are mixtures of isomers. The distribution of isomeric octadecenyl moieties in wax esters and alkyl diacyl glycerols is almost the same.
