The average relative standard deviations (RSDs) of peak area
ratio were 0.68% for palmitic acid/oleic acid, 0.31% for stearic acid/
oleic acid and 0.37% for linoleic acid/oleic acid. The resolution (Rs)
of each pair of fatty acid peaks was greater than 2.0 and the tailing
of oleic acid and the three fatty acid peaks was less than 2.0. A
typical system suitability chromatogram is shown in
