A transplantable preputial gland tumor in C57BL/6J mice contains relatively large amounts
of several sterols including 24, 25-dihydrolanosterol, a sterol found previously only in sheep
sebum, and a new sterol initially referred to as Bz (2). In the present report evidence is
presented which indicates that the identity of the latter sterol is 4cu-methyl-As-cholesten-
3&01.
