Abstract

Glycolipid fractions from human, equine and bovine spleens were separated by use of column chromatography on silicic acid. Among them, ceramide-oligohexosides were purified on Florisil column. From each spleen, glucocerebroside and ceramide-dihexoside containing both glucose and galactose were obtained. Moreover, in bovine spleen, ceramide-trihexoside was found.
