On the basis of dehydration reaction, fatty acids of vitamin A ester were selectively separated from other coexisting lipid esters such as glyceride. Fatty acid composition was determined by the use of gas chromatography. Vitamin A ester in fish liver oils was composed of various saturated or unsaturated fatty acids from C_<14> to C_<24>. Dominant members were palmitic and oleic acids. Polyenoic acid content was generally low as compared with that of other lipid esters such as glyceride.
