Splenic lipids in Gaucher's disease
Column chromatography (on cellulose, silicic acid, and Florisil) and thin-layer chromatography were employed for the separation and purification of lipid fractions from normal and Gaucher spleens. A new hydrolysis procedure, followed by paper chromatography, was used for identification of sugar moieties. A nonhydrolytic combined colorimetric procedure,
