Abstract
The arsenic content of phospholipid fractions separated from codliver oil(Gadus morrhua) and herring oil(Clupea harengus) was analyzed by means of neutron activation. The fractions were separated on a silicic acid column by chloroform/ methanol mixtures as eluting agents. The results indicate that the arsenic appears as arseno or-ganic compounds. Two such compounds were evident in herring oil.
