✦ Synopsis
A method is presented for direct chromatography of serum on paper, treated with silicic acid, for the separation of cholesterol esters. No previous lipid extraction is necessary. A new solvent system for' the thin-layer chromatographic separation of natural cholesterol esters is also discussed. The results obtained by paper chromatography and thin-layer chromatography are compared. Quantitative results obtained by thin-layer chromatography (heating with ammonium sulphate) show lower scatter, yet paper ~chromatography (staining with Rhodamine B) gives satisfactory results and both methods can be used for semiquantitative estimations. RF values of both methods ,and their variations for the separate results are shown.

Oxidized oleic acid esters are separated by means of column chromatography into several fractions, the purity and composition of which may be determined either by chromatography on silicic acid impregnated paper or by thin-layer chromatography. The two methods are considered equally suitable. Autoxi
