2. Conjugated linoleic acid - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conjugated_linoleic_acid

   Commonly, CLAs are studied as some mixture of isomers wherein the isomers c9,t11-CLA (rumenic acid) and t10,c12-CLA were the most abundant. [3] Studies show however that individual isomers have distinct health effects. [4] [5] Conjugated linoleic acid is both a trans fatty acid and a cis fatty acid.

   Linoleic acid has 18 carbons, is contained in many vegetable oils, particularly semi-drying oils, and is a cis-9-cis-12-di-unsaturated fatty acid. C 17 H 31 CO 2 H, IUPAC organization name (9 Z , 12 Z )-octadeca-9,12-dienoic acid, numerical representation 18:2 (9,12), n-6, molecular weight 280.45, melting point −5 °C, specific gravity 0.902.

4. Linoleic acid - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linoleic_acid

   Linoleic acid is a polyunsaturated, omega−6 fatty acid. It is a colorless liquid that is virtually insoluble in water but soluble in many organic solvents . [ 2 ] It typically occurs in nature as a triglyceride (ester of glycerin ) rather than as a free fatty acid . [ 6 ]

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fatty_acid

   For example, oleic acid, with one double bond, has a "kink" in it, whereas linoleic acid, with two double bonds, has a more pronounced bend. α-Linolenic acid, with three double bonds, favors a hooked shape. The effect of this is that, in restricted environments, such as when fatty acids are part of a phospholipid in a lipid bilayer or ...

7. Conjugated fatty acid - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conjugated_fatty_acid

   Conjugated fatty acids is jargon for polyunsaturated fatty acids containing at least one pair of conjugated double bonds. [1] An example of a conjugated fatty acid is the rumenic acid, found in the meat and milk of ruminants. Most unsaturated fatty acids that are doubly unsaturated do not feature conjugation, e.g., linoleic acid and linoelaidic ...

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Α-Linolenic_acid

   α-Linolenic acid, also known as alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) (from Greek alpha meaning "first" and linon meaning flax), is an n−3, or omega-3, essential fatty acid. ALA is found in many seeds and oils, including flaxseed , walnuts , chia , hemp , and many common vegetable oils .
