Very small amounts of polyunsaturated fatty acid and alcohol fractions were separated from the blubber oil of a sperm whale, Physeter macrocephalus, by a combination of urea-complex fractionation and silicic acid column chromatographic techniques. Gas-liquid chromatographic analyses of these fractions showed the presence of polyunsaturated fatty acids (18:4, 20:4, 20:5, 21:5, 22:5 and 22:6) and alcohols (18:4, 20:4, 20:5 and 22:6), some of which had not been reported. In addition, the existence of other minor unknown constituents was observed.
