| Abstract: | High-performance liquid chromatographic methods for the determination of dolichols in tissues and plasma have been developed. The tissue concentration of dolichols was measured by high-performance liquid chromatography with uv detection and plasma levels of dolichols were determined fluorometrically after derivatization with anthracene-9-carboxylic acid. In both methods, 2,2-didecaprenylethanol was used as an internal standard. The method with fluorescence detection was sufficiently sensitive to measure the concentration of dolichols in human plasma. |
