title: Identification of 6-ketoprostaglandin F1alpha formed from arachidonic acid in bovine seminal vesicles.
abstract: The prostaglandin synthesizing system in bovine seminal vesicles was characterized by a radiometric assay. Two main products were formed from [1-14C]-arachidonic acid, and their structures were confirmed by mass spectrometry. The less polar product was identical with prostaglandin E2 and the more polar one was identical with a new prostaglandin, i.e., 6-ketoprostaglandin F1alpha.
