Polymethylene-interrupted polyunsaturated fatty acids (PMI-PUFAs) are emerging functional lipids with proven antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects. In this study, a typical PMI-PUFA, sciadonic acid (C20:3, 5c 11c 14c), was enriched in the kernel oil of <i>Torreya fargesii</i> (<i>T. fargesii</i>) by fractionation. Fractionated kernel oil of <i>T. fargesii</i> (containing 25% sciadonic acid) showed equal stability and similar radical scavenging ability compared with the non-fractionated oil. ...[more]
