  1. The reported results were calculated by the chromatograms of samples 1, 2, 3, 5, and 7. √ = present;– = not detected; A/P = (azelaic/ palmitic); D/P = (dicarboxylic/ palmtic); O/S = (oleic/stearic); %D = (sum of the percentages of the following dicarboxylic acids: suberic, azelaic and sebacic). ME = methyl ester; diME = dimethyl ester
