Abstract
Evidence is presented for the occurrence of a long-chain ether analogue of phosphatidylethanolamine in brain tissue. The deacylated alkyl ether phospholipid can be obtained in small amounts from the white matter of brain tissue by a combination of selective hydrolysis and chromatography on alumina, silicic acid and Florlsil. It is estimated that the alkyl ether phospholipid does not account for more than 2-3% of the phospholipid in whole rat brain or 3% in ox-brain white matter.Keywords
