1. Despite the presence of appreciable quantities of steam volatile fatty acids as glycerides in butterfat, no short-chain fatty acids with odd carbon number have been detected by gas-liquid chromatography of the acids.2. Mild oxidation of butterfat for short periods of time produces steam volatile fatty acids with odd carbon number. A large proportion of these acids was formic, with smaller proportions of propionic, valeric and nonanoic acids.3. The relative ease with which short-chain fatty acids are produced on oxidation of fats, points to the danger of contaminating naturally occurring fatty acids with extraneous acids.4. A total analysis of the fatty acids of New Zealand butterfat by gas-liquid chromatography compared well with similar analyses carried out by previous workers by means of esterfractionation analysis.
