What is the formula for conjugated linoleic acid?
The formula for conjugated linoleic acid is C18H32O2. Conjugated linoleic acids are a family of at least 28 isomers of linoleic acid. Conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) is a mixture of positional and geometrical isomers of linoleic acid.
Which of the following lipids is an essential nutrient?
Linoleic acid
Which fatty acid is converted to arachidonic acid which serves as the precursor to the localized hormones known as eicosanoids?
Arachidonic acid is a 20:4(delta5,8,11,14) derivative fatty acid from linoleic acid. Linoleic and linolenic acids are "essential fatty acids" for mammals and they must be consumed from plant sources. Once consumed, linoleic acid may be converted to other polyunsaturated acids, particularly gamma-linoleic acid, eicosatrienoate and arachidonic acid (or eicosatetranoate) which can be only from linoleic acid.
Why is there no vitamin F?
The combination of linoleic acid and alpha linoleic acid (essential fatty acids) is often refered to as Vitamin F
What is gamma-linoleic acid?
Gamma-linoleic acid (GLA) is an omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acid made in the body from linolenic acid, an essential fatty acid (EFA).
What is linoleic acid?

What percent of total calories should come from linoleic acid?
5 to 10 percent should come from linoleic acid.
What is the melting point of linoleic acid?
The melting point of linoleic acid is around -5 degrees Celsius.
What is the predominant fatty acid in corn oil?
Linoleic acid
What pH is linoleic acid?
Linoleic acid is a fatty acid, and it does not have a pH value as it is not a solution that can be measured for acidity or alkalinity. pH is a measure of the concentration of hydrogen ions in a solution.
What is the size of linoleic acid?
Linoleic acid is a polyunsaturated omega-6 fatty acid with a molecular formula of C18H32O2. Its molecular weight is approximately 280.45 grams per mole.
What type of fatty acid found in corn oil?
98% would be omega-6 linoleic acid, and the other 2% being omega-3 Alpha-linoleic acid.
