Fractionates erythrocyte lipids in pigs, identifying key lipid components and methods for separation.

The study aims to fractionate and identify lipid components in pig erythrocytes using chromatographic techniques.
Fractionation of lipids using silicic acid column chromatography.
Determination of phosphorus and sugar content in lipid fractions.
Identification of lipids through thin layer chromatography and infrared spectroscopy.
Further separation of fractions S-20, S-25, S-40, and S-50 using cellulose column chromatography.
Eight lipid fractions (S-0 to S-50) were identified with distinct compositions.
Cholesterol was the main component in fraction S-0.
Fraction C-0 mainly contained phosphatidyl-serine while fraction C-10 included non-acidic phospholipids.
Cellulose chromatography effectively separated globoside from other lipids.

Tadashi et al. (1965) studied this question.
