The solvent action of acetone on frozen sections of brain and other lipid-rich tissues has been assessed by quantitative and chromatographic techniques. Under these histochemical conditions, acetone extracts free and esterified cholesterol, triglycerides and free fatty acids. Lecithin is not significantly extracted, while cephalins and sphingolipids are insoluble.
