palmitic acid
Explanation:
“palmine” is a synonym (possibly obsolete) of “palmitin” (“tripalmitin”).

The corresponding acid is “palmitic acid” (“palmic acid”). See the Wikipedia reference link.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palmitin
http://www.finedictionary.com/palmitin.html

The Lithuanian term ought to be “palmitino rūgštis”, while “palmino rūgštis” doesn’t seem to be used and is most likely an error.
