  • Title: Formation of fatty acid propyl esters in liver, lung and pancreas of rats administered 1-propanol.
    Author: Carlson GP.
    Journal: Res Commun Chem Pathol Pharmacol; 1993 Jul; 81(1):121-4. PubMed ID: 8210685.
    Abstract:
    The esterification of fatty acids by ethanol has been associated with a number of adverse reactions. In this study, the administration of 1-propanol (3 ml/kg 24 and 12 hours prior to measurements) to rats resulted in the formation of fatty acid propyl esters of oleic acid, lauric acid and to a lesser extent, palmitic acid and myristic acid. Formation was highest in liver and pancreas and was lower in lung.
