Identifies individual lipids in pig erythrocytes, revealing their composition and structure, indicating their biological significance.

This research aims to isolate and identify individual lipids present in pig erythrocytes and analyze their composition.
Isolated lipids using silicic acid and cellulose-column chromatography.
Identified lipids through chromatographic studies and infrared spectroscopy.
Analyzed fatty acids of various lipids using gas chromatography.
Performed chemical analysis and thin layer chromatography for phospholipid identification.
Examined long chain bases from sphingomyelin and globoside by alkaline and acid methanolysis.
Isolated major phospholipids accounted for 80-97% of the determined value.
Identified specific lipids including cholesterol esters, triglycerides, and various phospholipids.
Fatty acid analysis showed distinct compositions across different lipid types.
Demonstrated two forms of ceramide in pig erythrocytes, erythro- and threo-forms.

Tadashi et al. (1965) studied this question.
