Can I read Transmethylation of neutral and polar lipids with NaBH4 in the presence of NaOH on EtoBox?

Transmethylation of neutral and polar lipids with NaBH4 in the presence of NaOH by Marco Vincenzo Piretti; Giampiero Pagliuca; Marco Vasina is a Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology article available to read on EtoBox.

What is Transmethylation of neutral and polar lipids with NaBH4 in the presence of NaOH about?

The chemism of the transmethylation of neutral and/or polar glycerides, carried out using methanolic NaBH 4 in the presence of 2N NaOH added, is discussed. One millilitre of the reagent proposed here enables quantitative transmethylation of 2 mg of neutral lipid and up to 300 mg of polar lipid. The reaction is complete within 20 min at room temperature. This reagent seems particularly useful for the study of the fatty acid composition of high unsaturated lipids or when studying the structure of lipid oxidation products.

Who reads Transmethylation of neutral and polar lipids with NaBH4 in the presence of NaOH?

It is typically read by researchers, students, and practitioners in Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology.
