We synthesized some inorganic and organic salts of cholesteryl hemisuccinate. Aqueous solutions of the morpholine salt, at concentrations equivalent to 400 mg of cholesterol per deciliter, have been evaluated as aqueous cholesterol standards and compared to alcoholic cholesterol solutions in analyses for cholesterol in serum, as performed by two analytical reference procedures. No significant differences were found. The usefulness of solutions of this salt as additives for serum controls or recovery studies has been also demonstrated.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
