dorawestHealth & Beauty

Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) are fatty acids that contain two or more unsaturated double bond structures. Depending on the position of the first unsaturated bond, PUFAs can be divided into ω-3, ω-6, ω-7, ω-9 series. ω-3 PUFAs mainly include α-linolenic acid (ALA), eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), docosapentaenoic acid (DPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), etc. ω-6 PUFAs…

Methods of Lipidomics Analysis
