The origin, (?)ransformstion, and psleoecological significances of isoprenoid, triterpenoid and alkenoic acids in the extracted organic matter (EOM) are also discussed.An i-C_(17:6) isoprenoid fatty scid and two C_(31:0) homogammscersnoic fatty acid stereoisomers are detected in psleossline lake sediments. Homogammaceranoic acid might be an important precursor of gammscerane which is abundant in saline sediments.
