`
`Molecular Species of Fish Muscle Lccithin*"*’

`Koichi ZAMA“
`
`(Received May 19, 1982)
`
`Afsatisfactory separation of the molecular species offish muscle lecithin was made by modifying
`the lecithin into diglyceride acetate for high performance reversed phase liquid chromatography
`(HPLC). The molecular species of each chromatographic peak was determined by fatty acid
`composition and by total acyl carbon number analysis subsequent to separation, using a thin
`layer chromatographic technique with silver nitrate impregnated silica gel plates (Ag"'-'1'LC).
`After plotting the relative retention time (RRT) of each molecular species from soybean, egg
`yolk, chum salmon, big-eyed tuna, Aiaska pollack, and carp muscle lecithins semilogarithmically
`against the total acyl carbon number or the number of total double bonds of each molecular species,
`a set of parallel straight oblique lines was obtained. Thus we can express the molecular species
`in matrix relation by giving a variable integer x for the acyl carbon number and a variable integer
`y for the number of double bonds of each fatty acid in the molecular species. By using the cor-
`relations between the RRTS and the corresponding molecular species on semilogarithrnic plots,
`it was concluded that an identification of molecular species from fish lipids could be done by RRTs
`from HPLC.
`
`Lecithin has been studied by many workers
`concerning lipid changes during storage or pro-
`cessing of fish products.“ However, these works
`were done mainly by analyzing the lipid composi-
`tion or fatty acid composition, which might not
`be enough to elucidate the mechanisms of deterior-
`ation of foods caused by the changes in lipid.
`Therefore, a new method for determining molecular
`species of lecithin is necessary not only in the
`field of biochemistry, but also in the field of food
`chemistry.
`Recently, HPLC method has been introduced
`by CSIIIMA et al.*‘’ in order to analyze fish pho-
`spholipids which might have the most complicated
`molecular species composition among biological
`sources.
`
`The purpose of this study was to develop the
`method of Osrrmp. et ul.” to determine the in-
`dividual molecular species of fish phospholipid.
`
`Experimental
`
`Total lipids were obtained from the fish muscle
`tabulated in Table 1, according to the method of
`BLIGH & DYER. Soybean lecithin was purchased
`from Wako Pure Chemical
`Industries, Ltd.,
`Osaka, and egg yolk lecithin was kindly supplied
`by Asahi Chemical Industry Ltd., Tokyo. These
`total lipid and crude lecithin were subjected to a
`silica gel column chromatography which has been
`done successfully by LANDS et al.” for the puri-
`fication of lecithin. Eluates were monitored by
`TLC. And lecithin of more than 95 ‘X, purity
`were collected.
`
`Preparation of Diglyceride Acetate from I.ecithz‘n
`Pure lecithin was dephosphorylized with phos-
`pholipase C (Clostridium perfringcns), according
`to the method of R1-:NK0NEN.“’ Diglyceridc was
`prepared by preparative TLC from the depho-
`sphorylized lipid. The developing solvent was
`n-hexane/diethyl ether (1 : 1, v/v).
`Acetylation was performed by adding an appro-
`priate amount of acetic anhydride to the solution of
`diglyceride in pyridine, and by standing it for 12 h

`The diglyceride acetates were fractionated into
`major molecular
`species on twin 8 X250 mm
`l.iChrosorb RP-18 columns wich were connected
`in
`series. A Hitachi Liquid Cltromatograph
`Model 638-50 (Hitachi Ltd., Tokyo) equipped
`with a Shodex RI detector Model Sl:‘—ll (Showa
`Denko Ltd., Tokyo) was used. The eluting
`solvent used was isopropanol/acetone/methanol/
`acetonitrile (l: 1: 3: 4, v/v). Diglyceride acetates
`were dissolved into 5 volumes of tetrahydrofuran,
`and 25 /ll of these solutions were applied to the
`column under room temperature (lower the better)
`and at a flow rate of 1.5 ml/min.

`
`Peaks on HPLC chromatograms were numbered
`in sequence of elution. The fatty acid composi-
`tion of each collected predominant peak was
`analized by gas chromatography. The analytical
`conditions for fatty acid were as follows.

`
`Methyl esters of fatty acids were prepared ac-
`
`cording to the method of CHRISTOPHER and
`GLASS described by PREVOT and MoRmu5'r.“> An
`aliquot amount
`(less than 20 mg) of lipid was
`dissolved in 1 ml n-hexane and 0.2 ml ofmethanolic
`
`2N—NaOH solution was added. After shaking
`this mixture, it was stand for 20 s under 50°C and
`then 0.2 ml of methanolic 2N-HCI solution was
`
`added. The n—hexanc layer was collected and
`then concentrated. Methyl esters prepared were
`subjected to a gas liquid chromatographic analysis.
`The small peaks which have critical pairs were
`first
`subjected
`to Ag+-TLC. The developing
`solvent used was benzene/dicthyl ether
`(8: 2,
`v/v). The band obtained by Ag“-TLC were then
`eluted with diethyl ether containing dotriacontane
`which was used as an internal standard, and
`then applied to fatty acid analysis and total acyl
`carbon number analysis. The analytical condi—
`tions for total acyl carbon number analysis were
`as follows.

`
`of 22: 6 was detected in the free fatty acid fraction
`(this fraction represents the fatty acid in position
`1), although more than 70% of the lipid was hy-
`drolized (determined by a densitometric method).
`Peak number 6 had the same combination as
`
`that in peak number 7, whereas 18: 1-20: 5 were
`considered as contaminants of peak number
`5. Nevertheless in this case, 22: 6 was considered
`to be bound in position 1 in the molecule. Peak
`number 5 had an almost even amount of fatty acids
`of 16:0, 18: 1, 20:5 and 22:6. Among these
`fatty acids, 16:0 as well as 22: 6 were regarded
`as contaminants from peak number 6, considering
`that peak number 6 is larger than peak number 5.
`It was concluded that peak number 5 was the
`combination of
`18: 1
`and 20: 5. Molecular
`
`species from other biological sources were also
`determined in the same manner. The small peaks
`which have critical pairs were first subjected to
`Ag+-TLC and separated according to their degree
`of unsaturation.
`In most of the samll peaks
`in the first half of the HPLC chromatograms of
`
`fish lecithin, only one band appeared on Ag+-
`TLC plate. The complex combinations of mole-
`cular
`species were identified in the following
`manner. An example of determination of mo-
`lecular species in the small peaks with critical
`pairs appeared in the first half of the HPLC chro-
`matogram of chum salmon (captured in fall)
`is
`shown in Table 3
`(also see Fig. 2-D).
`Small
`peak number 1 is obviously a combination of 20: 5
`and 16: 1. Small peak number 2 is also a com-
`bination of 20: 5 and 16: 1 with 10% unidentified
`contaminants. The difference in retention time on
`
`HPLC between these two peaks was attributed
`to the differences in binding position of the fatty
`acid.
`It was considered that small peak number 1
`had 20: 5 in position 1, whereas small peak number
`2 had it in position 2 in the molecule, since mo-
`lecular species which have a highly unsaturated
`fatty acid in position 2 are likely to elute later
`than the one which has the same fatty acid in posi-
`tion 1. Small peak number 3 is a combination
`of 20: 5 in position 1 and 14:0 in position 2, and

`
`also 16:1 in position 1 and 20:5 in position 2
`since this peak is composed of two combinations
`of total acyl carbon numbers of 34 and 36 respec-
`tivcly, However,
`the latter molecular
`species,
`i_c, 16; 1-20: 5, are considered to be contaminants
`from the previous peak. From the fatty acid
`composlllon and total acyl carbon number, three
`molecular species were presented in small peak
`number 4,
`i_c, combination of 14:0 in position 1
`and 20; 5 in position 2 for 63.3°.,; combination

`57%; and combination of 22: 6 in position 1 and
`
`16:1 in position 2 for 31.0%. Among these
`molecular species, 16: l~~20: 5 can be considered
`as contaminants from the two previous peaks.
`In small peak number 5, three molecular species,
`i.e. 14:0 in position 1 and 20:5 in position 2;
`22:6 in position 1 and 14:0 in position 2; and

`
`position 1 and 20: 5 in position 2 were consi ered
`to be the contaminants from the previous peak.
`By analyzing the data in this way, molecular
`species of all other small peaks were identified.
`As illustrated in Fig. 2-D, the HPLC chromato-
`gram of diglyceride acetate of fish muscle lecithin
`can be divided into four molecular species groups,
`that is, 1: molecular species composed of highly
`unsaturated fatty acids such as 20: 5-22: 6, 22: 6-—
`22: 6 and 20: 5-20: 5,
`III: molecular
`species
`composed of generally found fatty acids such as
`16:0 or 18: l with combinations of 20: 5 or
`
`22:6, that is, 1620-20: 5, l6:0~22:6, 18: 1-20: 5
`and 18: 1-2226, and II and IV: others.
`In all
`marine fish examined, groups I and III accounted
`for more than 70 % of the molecular species which
`were determined in the following manner.
`All HPLC chromatograms were traced on sec-
`tion papers, and the area of the identified peaks
`were measured, though there was some limitation
`in accuracy caused by the overlapping of the
`peaks.
`The results for fish muscle lecithin are sum-
`merized in Table 4. Fish from marine sources
`
`contain a significant amount of highly unsaturated
`fatty acid combinations such as: 22: 6-22: 6,
`22: 6-20: 5 and 20: 5-20: 5. All
`fish lecithin
`
`The RR'I‘s of all peaks were determined by
`dividing the retention time of each peak by the
`retention time of 16:0 22: 6.“ In the case of
`
`soybean lecithin, 16: 0-1822*" was used as a
`reference peak and the RRTS were reculculated
`against 16: 0-22: 6“ by using the RRTs data in
`egg yolk lecithin. The RRT of each molecular
`species is summerized in Tables 5-8.
`
`Discussion
`
`We have plotted the RRT of each molecular
`species semilogarithmically against
`the partition
`number
`(PN) defined as PN:C’” 2d*‘ since
`PN is proportional to the logarithm of RRT.‘”
`A general expression for this can be written as:
`
`PNoc log (RRT)
`
`(1)
`
`After plotting the RRT of each molecular species
`semilogarithmically,
`a similar correlation was
`obtained, that is:
`
`PNoc log (RRT) +219
`
`(2)
`
`(2) is similar to (1), and if we formulate (2) into an
`equation
`
`PN-=P - log (RRT)-L AQ
`
`(3)
`
`examined contain 16: 0-22: 6 as the predomin-
`ant molecular species.
`
`where P becomes the slope of the oblique line, and
`AQ becomes the intersection on the ordinate.

`latter. Alfa is considered to be a factor that has
`a slight effect on RRT, and may be due to the
`positional isomers such as between 1 and 2 posi-
`tion in the molecule, or by the large differences
`in number of double bonds between the two fatty
`acids in the molecule. This leads us to the concept
`of a matrix since it
`is convenient
`to distinguish
`the positional isomers or the bias in the number
`of double bonds between the two fatty acids in the
`molecule. So in order to simplify the equation,
`we can induce the following equations from (8)

`
`by analyzing the RRT data of each molecular
`species.
`_
`After plotting the RRT of each molecular species
`from the source examined against the total acyl
`carbon number or the number of total double
`bonds of each molecular species, the RRT plots of
`molecular species laid almost on a straight line by
`giving a variable integer x for the carbon number
`and a variable integer y for the number of double
`bonds of each fatty acid in the molecular species,
`when we express the molecular species in matrix
`relation. The oblique lines were parallel to each
`other as shown in Fig. 4. By applying these cor-
`relations between the RRT and the corresponding
`molecular species under the condition of matrix
`for the determination of molecular species, it was
`
`suggested that an unidentified molecular species
`of Iecithins could be identified from RRT on HPLC
`even if it has the most complicated composition of
`molecular species such as fish muscle lecithin.
`While this manuscript was
`in preparation,
`another method for HPLC analysis of phospholipid
`molecular species was published by I’AT'1‘oN et 11].”)
`To our surprise, the sequence of each molecular
`species in elution on IIPLC, when the RRTS
`were plotted against the total acyl carbon number
`from our biological material, were the same as
`common molecular species of rat liver which was
`analyzed by PATTON er 11].”) despite the fact that
`the analytical conditions were significantly dif-
`ferent. This suggests that, although there are
`differences in retention time or in RRT among
`the different conditions on HPLC,
`the sequence
`in elution of each molecular species might be
`unchangeable. This
`leads us
`to a conclusion
`that in HPLC,
`the sequence in elution might be
`controlled by a fixed correlation, that is matrix
`relation. By accepting this idea, we can expand
`this matrix concept to triglycerides. Details will
`be reported at a later date.
