The high levels of very long chain fatty acids found in ram spermatozoa are located almost exclusively in one of two separable species of sphingomyelin. Mass spectral analysis, including fast atom bombardment of the purified sphingomyelin, has shown the fatty acids to have a carbon chain length of between 28 and 34, with between four and six double bonds, and to belong predominantly to the n-3 series.
在公羊精子中发现的高水平极长链脂肪酸几乎完全位于两种可分离的鞘磷脂物种之一中。包括对纯化的鞘磷脂进行快速原子轰击在内的质谱分析表明,这些脂肪酸的碳链长度在28至34之间,有四至六个双键,并且主要属于n-3系列。
