title: [Determination of higher fatty acids in human plasma].
abstract: Methods for measurements of higher fatty acids in human blood are discussed. The possibility of using gas chromatography for this purpose is analyzed. Higher fatty acids were measured in the plasma of 56 elderly patients with noninsulin-dependent diabetes mellitus and 17 age-matched healthy controls by gas chromatography. The concentrations of oleic and arachidonic acids were increased and that of myristic acid decreased in the diabetics vs. the controls.
