Abstract

It was observed in this laboratory that intravenous infusions of a cottonseed oil emulsion containing soybean phosphatides and Pluronic1 as emulsifying agents lowered the abnormally high serum lipid levels of patients with idiopathic hyperlipemia and primary hypercholesteremic xanthomatosis (1). It was then found that a single infusion of this emulsion given to fasting human subjects or dogs caused an increase in the speed of electrophoretic migration of both the alpha and beta lipoproteins of the serum (2). Further studies of the effects of intravenous administrations of cottonseed oil emulsion and its emulsifying agents on the serum of dogs are presented in this preliminary report.
