acetone

The percentages of C16:0, C16:1, C18:1n9, and MUFA of LT fat were positively correlated (0.41 [less than or equal to] r [less than or equal to] 0.78, p<0.05) with acetaldehyde, 2-methyl butanal, 3-methyl butanal, and 2-propanone percentages (Table 7).

The ketone molecule, 2-pentanone, was marginally higher, but 2-propanone and cyclopentanone showed pronounced lower solubility potential (compared to baseline fuels).
