title: Presence of paf-acether in human blood after thin-layer chromatography, but not after high-performance liquid chromatography purification.
abstract: After HPLC purification of human blood extracts, paf-acether (paf) was found exclusively as a lipoprotein-bound compound (lipopaf), whereas free-paf was absent. When the same samples (or lipopaf recovered from HPLC) were purified by TLC, both free-paf and lipopaf were detected. The free-paf detected in blood samples could thus result from lipopaf dissociation during TLC purification.
