Capillary supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC) using carbon dioxide as a mobile phase was applied for the determination of free cholesterol and cholesteryl esters in human serum. Serum samples were extracted with methanol-chloroform (2:1, v/v), and the extracts were analyzed by

Statins inhibit endogenous cholesterol synthesis, up-regulate low-density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor expression in mammalian liver cells, and thus decrease circulating LDL-cholesterol concentrations. As cholesterol seems to play a role in the development of neurodegenerative diseases, it is of interest to evaluate

Cholesteryl palmitate was measured by thin-layer chromatography in 98 amniotic fluid samples obtained from pregnancies ranging from 15 to 40 weeks. Pregnancies complicated by diabetes mellitus or Rh sensitization were excluded. Cholesteryl palmitate concentration increased with gestational age from values

Dispersions (50 wt% in water) of sphingomyelin/cholesteryl palmitate (95 : 5 mol%) have been studied by 2H- and 31P-NMR spectroscopy between 25 and 60 degrees C. The deuterated esters, cholesteryl palmitate-d31 and cholesteryl palmitate-16, 16, 16-d3, were used for 2H-NMR

Obstetrics and gynecology, 72(3 Pt 1), 360-362 (1988-09-01)
Amniotic fluid cholesteryl palmitate, as measured by thin-layer chromatography, appears to be a very sensitive and specific predictor for the risk of respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) in newborns of normal pregnancies. To assess the effect of diabetes mellitus on fetal
