  • Title: Composition and distribution of lipids in tissues of bogue (Boops boops).
    Author: Kapoulas VM, Miniadis-Meimaroglou S.
    Journal: Z Naturforsch C Biosci; 1985; 40(7-8):562-5. PubMed ID: 4050028.
    Abstract:
    Total lipids from liver, head, skin and muscle of Bogue were separately isolated and their composition was investigated by a combination of analytical determinations, and column and thin layer chromatography. The major components of the neutral lipid fractions from all tissues studied were triglycerides, followed by cholesterol. The triglyceride fraction of skin and head contains significant amounts of glyceryl ether analogs. Low contents of free fatty alcohols were also identified, decreasing in the order: head, muscle, skin and liver. The major components of all phospholipid fractions was phosphatidylcholine (viz. 36-59% of total phospholipids) followed by phosphatidylethanolamine (viz. 23-34% of total phospholipids). Low amounts of sphingomyelin and phosphatidylserine were also identified in all cases. All the tissues studied were found to contain plasmalogens, as well as glyceryl ether analogs in both, the depot fats and the phospholipid fractions.
