Most triglycerides are unsymmetrical, being derived from mixtures of fatty acids. Triolein represents 4–30% of olive oil. [1] Triolein is also known as glyceryl trioleate and is one of the two components of Lorenzo's oil. [2] The oxidation of triolein is according to the formula: C 57 H 104 O 6 + 80 O 2 → 57 CO 2 + 52 H 2 O

Dogs are able to synthesize and convert 7-dehydrocholesterol (provitamin form of vitamin D) to cholecalciferol (inactive form of vitamin D) following exposure to UV light from the sun. [48] Cholecalciferol is then converted to calcidiol in the liver before further hydroxylated to calcitriol , the active form of vitamin D, in the kidney . [ 49 ]
