A method for the extraction of acyl-CoA esters from tissue, and their subsequent analysis by HPLC is described. The lipids are removed by a two-phase extraction in a chloroform/methanol/water system. The long-chain acyl-CoA esters are extracted using methanol and a high salt concentration (2 M ammon

β¦ Synopsis
A method is described that yields pure long chain fatty acyl-CoA esters. It utilizes a partially purified long chain acyl-CoA synthetase that can be obtained from various sources. Product isolation involves butanol extraction and thin-layer chromatography. It is applicable to a wide range of fatty acids and is particularly suitable in preparing radioactive acyl-CoA esters.
