[F12. Calculations U.K.
2.1. For the calculation of the fatty acid composition and ΔECN42, all the following fatty acids will be taken into account: U.K.
Myristic (C14:0).
Palmitic (C16:0). Sum of the areas of the peaks corresponding to the methyl and ethyl esters.
Palmitoleic (C16:1). Sum of the areas of the peaks corresponding to the ω9 and ω7 isomers of the methyl ester.
Margaric (C17:0).
Margaroleic (C17:1).
Stearic (C18:0).
Oleic (C18:1). Sum of the areas of the peaks corresponding to the ω9 and ω7 isomers of the methyl ester, ethyl ester, and trans-isomers of the methyl ester.
Linoleic (C18:2). Sum of the areas of the peaks corresponding to the methyl and ethyl esters, and the trans-isomers of the methyl ester.
Arachidic (C20:0).
Linolenic (C18:3). Sum of the areas of the methyl ester and the trans-isomers of the methyl ester.
Eicosenoic (C20:1).
Behenic (C22:0).
Lignoceric (C24:0).
Squalene will not be taken into account for the calculation of the total area.
2.2. For the calculation of the percentage of trans-C18:1 the peak corresponding to the methyl esters of this fatty acid is to be used. For the sum [trans-C18:2 + trans-C18:3], all the peaks corresponding to the trans-isomers of these two fatty acids are to be added together. For the calculation of the total area, all the peaks mentioned in 2.1. are to be taken into account (see COI/T.20/Doc. No. 17). U.K.
The calculation of the percentage of each fatty acid will be carried out according to the formula:
