[Lipids of Raillietina tetragona and Raillietina echinobothrida cestodes from the intestines of hens].
Lipids of the cestodes R. tetragona and R. echinobothrida, parasites of chickens, were studied by thin-layer and gas-liquid chromatography methods. The quantity of neutral lipids amounts to 74.4% in R. tetragona and to 73.1% in R. echinobothrida. Triglycerides amount to 35.6% and 38.4% of the neutral lipids in these species, sterols to 21.6% and 17.2%, sterol esters to 25.1% and 32.0%, diglycerides to 2.8% and 1.4% and free fatty acids to 7.8% and 6.5%, respectively. Fatty acids content of worms is similar but not identical of that of chicken intestine lipids. Cestode infection affects the lipid content of chicken intestine resulting in the decrease of triglycerides and oleic acid quantities and in the increase of the amount of free fatty acids and stearic acid.
