Summary:(1) A bis-phosphatidic acid plasmalogen present in brain of Amia calva is described from data obtained by paper and column chromatography and compared with the similar material observed in the ischemic portion of infarcted dog heart. (2) The alk-1-enyl content of these substances was examined by chromatography of their Vitride reduction products. Their response to lecithinase A 2 and HgCl 2, and to alkaline hydrolysis for the dog heart substance, were described. (3) A similar description was made for the cardiolipin plasmalogen of Clostridium butyricum. (4) The behavior of the cardiolipin lipids to cytochrome c complexing is briefly described.
