title: Direct quantitation of cholestanol in plasma by gas-liquid chromatography.
abstract: A gas-liquid chromatographic (GLC) method for quantitation of cholestanol in plasma was developed using SP-1000 without the need for argentation thin-layer chromatography and silylation. Cholestanol was resolved well before cholesterol and the phytosterols. This method was sensitive, specific for cholestanol, and reproducible.
