A new method in quantitative determination of double bonds (DB) in the pool of fatty acids (FA) has been worked out by ozone titration after extraction of lipids according to Folch. A correlation was observed among DB content, the level of cholesterol alcohol (CS, r = +0.612; p < 0.001) and the level of glycerol (GL) alcohol (r = +0.392; p < 0.01). The grown-ups with ischemic heart disease and children have a constant ratio (5.05 +/- 0.18) DB:CS ratio.
