A total of 116 molecular species of triglycerides were identified in milk fat using a combination of HPLC and GLC. Triglyceride composition was predicted from the random composition, which was calculated on the basis of the mole fractions of the main fatty acids making up the total triglyceride fraction. The qualitative composition of the milk fat was similar in cows', ewes' and goats' milk. In all three milks the partition number of the main triglycerides was 46, but the proportions of the triglycerides with partition numbers of 34, 38, 42, and 48 exhibited substantial differences among the milks of the three species.
