Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Stable isotope ratios (D/H, 13C/12C) analysis of fatty acids have been widely employed as a powerful tool for tracing biological sources and production/consumption processes of lipids in diverse studies. However, enough to benefit from this isotope analysis, we must reduce inconvenience in the derivatization method in the current procedure. In this study, we replace the standard acid-alcohol derivatization by the chloroformate derivatization, to much modify and reduce this inconvenience. Unlike the standard derivatization (which requires toxic reagents at high temperature for a few hours under hydrophobic condition), the chloroformate derivatization well work less-toxic reagents at room temperature for a few minutes. Moreover, this new derivatization does not strictly require hydrophobic condition (where water content by ~2% is permitted), resulting in that great care on the hydrophobicity is unnecessary for the derivatization, for example, even in rainy season.
