Abstract
Complex mixtures of ether lipids and ester lipids are subjected to reduction with lithium aluminiumhydride to yield 1-alkylglycerols, 1-alk-1'-enylglycerols, and alcohols. Acetylation of these reduction products with radioactively labelled acetic anhydride leads to mixtures of alkyldiacetylglycerols, alk-1-enyldiacetylglycerols, and alkyl acetates. These derivatives are resolved by thin-layer chromatography and then estimated by scanning of the chromatogram or by liquid-scintillation counting of the eluted fractions.
