GC-MS analysis of fatty acids from flue-cured tobacco.
Fatty acids obtained by saponification of a hexane-soluble  fraction of flue-cured tobacco were converted to their methyl esters. The esters were purified by TLC and identified by GC-MS. Qualitative and quantitative results are reported for acids of chain lengths C12-C34.
