Abstract
Summary The linoleic acid content of serum lipids was measured in 10 patients with Batten's disease and 11 healthy control subjects by gas liquid chromatography. The fatty acid patterns of serum lipids in this disease may reflect a primary or secondary deficiency in essential fatty acid (linoleic acid) probably related to a glutathione peroxidase abnormality.Keywords
