The cholesterol contents of tallow and tallow fractions derived by aqueous detergent fractionation were determined by gas chromatography. Tallow was found to contain 0.14% cholesterol by weight. Liquid and solid fractions subsequently derived by temperature fractionation at 40, 33, 27, 22 and 18°C contained between 0.10 and 0.15% cholesterol by weight. The liquid fraction at each temperature had cholesterol contents 0.02 – 0.04% higher than the corresponding solid fractions.
