#Animal lipid


1.Relatively rich in saturated fatty acids

2.Due to their saturation, tend to stay solid at room temperature, hence commonly known as ‘fats’

3..Iodine number of animal lipids will be relatively less (iodine number denote the degree of un-saturation in fatty acids)

4.Animal fats have relatively higher value of Reichert-Meissl number (Reichert-Meissl number indicate how much volatile fatty acid can be extracted from a fat through saponification)

5.Oxidative rancidity is observed more frequently.Stored in liver, beneath the skin etc.

6.Animals have specialized cells for storing fat reserve called adipocytes


#plant lipid


1.Comparatively rich in unsaturated fatty acids

2.Due to their high un-saturation, tend to stay liquid at room temperature, hence commonly known as ‘oils’

3.Iodine number of plant fats will be more when compared to animal fats

4.Relatively lower Reichert-meissl number

5.Oxidative rancidity is relatively less in plant fats

6.Stored in fruits and seeds

7.Plants do not have adipocytes for storing fats, fats are stored as granules (oil droplets) in the cell cells of endosperm of seeds or other cells
