서울대학교 임상영양학실험 Fatty Acid Analysis 실험보고서(영문)

1. Purpose

The purpose of the Fatty Acid Analysis experiment in the Clinical Nutrition Laboratory at Seoul National University is to explore the composition and characteristics of fatty acids present in various food sources and biological samples. Understanding the types and quantities of fatty acids is crucial for nutritional science, as they play essential roles in human health and metabolism. Fatty acids are fundamental components of lipids and contribute significantly to energy storage, the formation of biological membranes, and the regulation of various physiological processes. In this experiment, the primary aim is to identify and quantify different fatty acids using advanced analytical techniques. Gas chromatography is typically employed to separate and analyze the fatty acids after they have been extracted and possibly derivatized. The focus is not only on determining the total fat content but more importantly on the profile of individual fatty acids, which can provide ins
