Abstract
The 1-alk-1′-enyl-2-acyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphorylethanolamines (ethanolamine plasmalogens) are important components of the central nervous system. Of the total phospholipids in some subcellular fractions, the ethanolamine plasmalogens account for about one-third in the myelin, one-fifth in the microsomes, and one-eighth in the mitochondria. The following procedures are used in our laboratories for determinations of the amount and composition of the ethanolamine plasmalogens. (reviewed by Horrocks, 1972).*
