Abstract | Phospholipids of Tenebrio molitor larvae were separated on columns of DEAE-cellulose and silicic acid-Hyflo Super Cel. The major phosphatide components were identified by various analytical procedures. Phosphatidyl choline was demonstrated to be the predominant phospholipid with a high percentage of phosphatidyl ethanolamine. A small amount of inositol-containing phosphatides were present. Phosphatidyl serine was undetectable but an unknown amino acid-containing phosphatide comprised one of the fractions. Evidence is also presented for the existence of a choline-containing sphingolipid. The results show that the phospholipid pattern was similar to those of other insects. |
