We analyzed fetal calf, newborn calf, horse, and adult cow sera for conjugated linoleic acid (CLA). All sera samples contained CLA, but the amounts varied. The predominant isomer was cis ‐9, trans ‐11 CLA but some samples appeared to contain substantial amounts of an isomer with the retention time of trans ‐10, cis ‐12 CLA.
