title: Medium chain fatty acid synthesis in rodent mammary adenocarcinomas in vitro.
abstract: The ability or inability of certain rodent mammary adenocarcinomas to synthesize medium chain fatty acids in vitro, correlates with the presence or absence of the specific mammary chain-terminating enzyme, thioesterase II.
