Fatty acid composition ot soybean lecithin was analyzed by GC cording to the method of Lee and Choe (2011) after the lecithin was saponified with methanolic NaOH (2 mol/L) and esterified with 14 BF3 in methanol. The instrument was a YL 6100 gas chromatograph (Younglin Instrument Co., Ltd.) equipped with an an P-Innowax column (30) 1m x 0.53 mm, 1.0-Aunn autosampler thick Agilent. Boblingen. Germany). and a Hanne ionization detector. The injection volume was 1 AlL. The temperatures of the oven, injector, and detector were 200, 270, and 280 oC, respectively. The helium flow rate was 10 mL/niin, and the split ratio was 10:1. Heptadecanoic acid was used as an internal standard, and each fatty acid in the chromatogram was identified by comparing retention times with those of standard fatty acid methyl esters Concentration of each fatty acid was represented as relative by dividing each peak area by total peak areas
