Acetate-1-14C incorporation into polyunsaturated fatty acids of phospholipids of developing chick brain

Journal of Lipid Research, 1967
The incorporation of acetate-1-14C into the polyunsaturated fatty acids of glycerophosphatides of chick embryonic brain has been studied. After the injection of acetate-1-14C into the yolk sac, differences were found in the degree of labeling of the ...
