title: [Human erythrocyte glycerides].
abstract: There are difficulties in measuring red cell glycerides mainly because the amount found in erythrocytes is so differne from that of other lipids in blood cells. The red corpuscles contain only very small quantities of glycerides, about 5mg/1, while the amount of cholesterol and phospholipids is 200 to 500 times higher. The methods currently used for estimating glycerides in serum can be used here only after removing these other lipids. The distribution of glycerides in erythrocytes is ver different from that of serum: serum contains mainly triglycerides while there are diglycerides as well as triglycerides in erythrocytes (on average 3,4 micro mol/1 of triglycerides and 1,7 mumol/1 of diglycerides).
