A simple and convenient procedure for the hydrogenation of lipids on the micro- and nanomole scale

A glass tube of a special design has been used as a vessel for the hydrogenation of lipids under slight excess pressure at 50°C. Methyl [1-14C]linolenate was quantitatively hydrogenated to methyl stearate in less than 30 min. High yields were obtained on both the micromole scale (mean and standard d...
