A simple method for the isolation and purification of total lipides from animal tissues.

TLDR
In this paper, the authors described a simplified version of the method and reported the results of a study of its application to different tissues, including the efficiency of the washing procedure in terms of the removal from tissue lipides of some non-lipide substances of special biochemical interest.

High Density Lipoprotein Metabolism in Man

TL;DR: The turnover of (125)I-high density lipoprotein (HDL) was examined in a total of 14 studies in eight normal volunteers in an attempt to determine the metabolic relationship between apolipoproteins A-I and A-II of HDL and to define further some of the determinants of HDL metabolism.

Adrenoleukodystrophy Increased plasma content of saturated very long chain fatty acids

TL;DR: With a new method, saturated very long chain fatty acids in the plasma of adrenoleukodystrophy (ALD) hemizygotes, ALD heterozygotes, and controls are measured, showing increased levels of hexacosanoate (C26 fatty acid) which represented 0.081 ± 0.0066% of total fatty acids.

Growth, lipid content, productivity, and fatty acid composition of tropical microalgae for scale-up production

TL;DR: The present study provides a practical benchmark, which allows comparison of microalgal production systems with different footprints, as well as terrestrial systems, to find the organism that had the best dry biomass and/or lipid production profile in large‐scale cultures.

Reduction in the Rate of Early Restenosis after Coronary Angioplasty by a Diet Supplemented with n–3 Fatty Acids

TL;DR: It is suggested that a dietary supplement of n-3 fatty acids, administered for one week before and for six months after coronary angioplasty, is safe and reduces the occurrence of early restenosis after that procedure.
Journal ArticleDOI

Quantitative analysis of food fatty acids by capillary gas chromatography

TL;DR: In this paper, the use of wall-coated glass capillary columns in a semiautomated system for the determination of food fatty acids was discussed, and typical analyses of the fatty acids from foods presented.

Preparation of lipide extracts from brain tissue.

TL;DR: A simple method is described for the preparation of extracts of total pure lipides from brain tissue by homogenizing the tissue with a chloroform-methanol mixture and washing free of non-lipide contaminants.

The quantitative estimation of cerebrosides in nervous tissue.

TL;DR: The values for cerebrosides found in the current literature include gangliosides, and other investigators (JOHNSON, MCNABB, and ROSSITER, 1950; CUMINGS, 1953; BLACKWOOD and CUMings, 1954) have neglected the ganglariosides.

Isolation of brain strandin, a new type of large molecule tissue component.

TL;DR: The isolation from brain tissue of a substance to which the name of strandin has been given for descriptive purposes is reported, which has the property of forming long strands that show perfect orientation under polarized light.
