Summary.— The content and composition of phospholipids in fresh and cultured guinea‐pig skin have been determined. Following culture, it was confirmed that the phospholipid concentration decreased, particularly when glucose was omitted from the culture medium. There was no change in the relative proportions of the phospholipids of the skin.
