PPT-LIPIDS

34 What Are Lipids Lipids are a diverse group of molecules that contain regions composed almost entirely of hydrogen and carbon All lipids contain large chains of nonpolar hydrocarbons Most lipids are therefore hydrophobic and water insoluble. Lipids. Essential . macronutrients. Provide . energy. Building blocks for cell membranes. Form many important hormones. Help transport fat-soluble nutrients. Contribute to flavor and texture of . food. Lipids are relatively insoluble in water.. They are soluble in . nonpolar. solvents such as chloroform , diethyl ether, acetone, benzene and ether.. The hydrophobic (water hating) nature of lipids is due to the predominance of hydrocarbon chain.(-CH2-CH2-CH2-) in their structure. Dr. Huda Hania. Lipid chemistry . Lipid chemistry . Definition .

Lipids are a family of chemical compounds that are a main component in every living cell. They include the following three categories:. Triglycerides. – they include all fats and oils people typically eat.. Structures of fatty acids. Hydrogenation. Nomenclature. Essential fatty acids. Agenda. Functions. Long-term ___ storage. Support organs. Insulation. Fat soluble vitamins A, D, E, K. Types. Physical Property. nonpolar. organic compound insoluble in polar solvent , but . soluble in organic solvents. such as benzene ,ether, chloroform.. Biological role of lipids. :. Lipids are found naturally in all living organisms.. Lipids are hydrophobic or amphipathic small molecules that may originate entirely or in part by carbanion-based condensations of thioesters (fatty acids, polyketides, etc.) and/or by carbocation-based condensations of isoprene units . Cholesterol. Rich in hydrocarbon. Polar group (usually small). Oleic acid. Lipids serve a wide variety of functions. Vitamin K. Surfactants. Protection. Membrane. components. Insulation.
