An improved method for extracting the lipids from tissues [rat or mouse brain] consists of the use of hexane:isopropanol, followed by a wash of the extract with aqueous sodium sulfate to remove nonlipid contaminants. This method has a number of advantages over the common usage of chloroform:methanol. The solvents are somewhat less toxic, interference in processing by proteolipid protein contamination is avoided, the 2 phases separate rapidly during the washing step, the solvent density is low enough to permit centrifugation of the homogenate as an alternative to filtration, the solvents are cheaper, and the washed extract can be applied to a chromatographic column with continuous monitoring of the elution in the far UV region. The new extraction method is inefficient for the extraction of gangliosides.
