Secretions from the dorsal gland of male and female free-ranging adult white-lipped peccaries (Tayassu pecari) from Bolivia were analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Fifty compounds were identified, some provisionally. Secretions of both sexes contain saturated and unsaturated C5-C18 carboxylic acids as well as isomers of the diterpene springene. The females' secretions uniquely possess farnesyl esters of C8 and C10 carboxylic acids, whereas the males' secretions uniquely showed two compounds provisionally identified as monounsaturated C16 lactones. Saturated high-molecular-weight esters of C10 carboxylic acids are more abundant in the females' secretions than in those of the males. The secretions of both sexes also contain monoalkanoate esters of methylhydroquinone as major components.
对来自玻利维亚的成年野生白唇西猯（白唇野猪）雄性和雌性背腺分泌物进行了气相色谱-质谱分析。共鉴定出50种化合物，其中一些为暂定鉴定。两性的分泌物都含有饱和和不饱和的C5 - C18羧酸以及二萜类化合物斯普林烯的异构体。雌性分泌物独特地含有C8和C10羧酸的法呢酯，而雄性分泌物独特地显示出两种暂定鉴定为单不饱和C16内酯的化合物。C10羧酸的饱和高分子量酯在雌性分泌物中比在雄性分泌物中更丰富。两性的分泌物还都含有甲基对苯二酚单链烷酸酯作为主要成分。
