Identification of a xylose-containing cerebroside in the salt gland of the herring gull

A pentose-containing cerebroside has been identified in the salt gland of the herring gull, using mass spectrometry of acetyl and trimethylsilyl derivatives. A detailed interpretation of the spectra allowed a conclusion concerning the major long-chain base (the C20 homolog of sphingosine) and the ma...
