Cholesterol in the Cuticular Wax of Boophilus microplus

Abstract

TRACES of substances giving colour reactions typical of sterols have been found in the cuticle and cuticular wax of several arthropods1–6, but they have not been reported from ticks7,8. I have now shown that both free and esterified cholesterol occur in the wax of Boophilus microplus, and I have measured the quantity of each present.
