Solubility differences of phospholipids and tri‐glycerides in methanol have been used with advantage for the selective quantitative extraction of phospho‐lipids, almost free of triglycerides, from egg yolk. Cholesterol, a comparatively minor component of egg yolk lipids, is easily removed from the methanolic solution of phospholipids by low temperature crystal‐lization (5 C), if required.
