Chromatographically pure galactosylceramide I3-sulfate (cerebroside sulfate (CBS)) containing palmitic acid or D-2-hydroxypalmitic acid has been prepared by the acylation of galactosylsphingosine I3-sulfate obtained from the saponification of bovine brain sulfatides. Optically pure D-2-hydroxypalmitic acid was obtained by adapting literature methods

Monoglycosylceramides were isolated from pig epidermal cells which had been prepared free from dermal elements. The most polar glycolipid among the five isolated monoglycosylceramides was galactosylceramide. The galactosylceramide was composed of alpha-hydroxypalmitic acid and 16- and 18-carbon chain sphingenine, being
