INTRODUCTION:
The term lipids is applied to a group of naturally occurring substances characterized by their insolubility in water ,greasy feel and solubility in some organic solvents.They are classified as:
1.Simple lipids
2.Compound lipids and
3.Derived lipids.
1.SIMPLE LIPIDS:
-Simple lipids consists of esters of fatty acids with glycerol.Eg:Oils and fats.
-Oils are liquids at 20 degree Celsius and fats are solids at 20 degree Celsius.(all triglycerides).
-Fatty acids are divided into two types-Saturated and Unsaturated fatty acids.
-Saturated fatty acids such as Lauric,palmitic and Stearic acids.
-Unsaturated fatty acids such as Oleic acid,Linoeic acid ,Etc
2.COMPOUND LIPIDS:
-The compound lipids consists of Phospholipids.
-The Phospholipids are Lecithin,cephalin,Plasmalogens,etc.
-The important phospholipids present in animal and human tissues like in nervous tissues.
3.DERIVED LIPIDS:
-Derived lipids consists of Sterols.Sterols are classified as follows
1.Animal sterols eg:Cholesterol.(It is seen in all animals and human tissues)
2.Plant sterols eg:Phytosterols and
3.Mycosterols eg:Ergosterol.
