title: Structural characterization of a "signature" phosphatidylethanolamine as the major 10-hydroxy stearic acid-containing lipid of Cryptosporidium parvum oocysts.
abstract: A 10-hydroxy stearic acid-containing lipid from Cryptosporidium parvum was purified by thin-layer chromatography and analyzed by infrared spectroscopy, fast-atom bombardment mass spectrometry, 1H and 31P nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, and was identified as phosphatidyl-ethanolamine.
