Folch-Pi and Lees describe the cumbersome process in a 1951 article in the Journal of biological chemistry, “To a filtrate from proteolipide A was added an equal volume of acetone, and, after mixing, the solution was allowed to stand at 4° overnight. A precipitate that had formed was collected by centrifugation and dried in a vacuum desiccator at room temperature to constant weight. 0.6 gm. of a white powder was obtained (proteolipide B).”

The soldier entered Massachusetts General Hospital on November 3, 1865. At that time the arm swung freely without pain. Surgeon Henry Jacob Bigelow removed three more pieces of bone with a trephine, scraped the interiors with a gouge, wired the two sections together, and splinted the arm exterior. No union occurred.
On March 1, 1866 Bigelow performed a second operation with further bone removal and wiring resulting in a stiffening of arm, but patient fell on June 10, 1866 and re-broke the humerus. On January 12, 1867 a third operation was performed with further wiring resulting in paralysis of the upper arm, although no nerve was known to be severed. This operation resulted in union of the fracture but the paralysis continued. The post-operative arm was seven inches shorter than the patient's healthy arm.
