Abstract
The anomeric configurations of Corbicula ceramide dihexoside and ceramide trihexoside were determined by chromium trioxide oxidation and the structures of these lipids were shown to be Man-β(1→4)-Glc-β(1→1)-ceramide and Man-α(1→4)-Man-β(1→4)-Glc-B(1→1)-ceramide. These results are compatible with those obtained by enzymic hydrolysis reported previously.
