Course Contents •Functions of lipids •structure of lipids •Properties of Lipids •Biological significance of Lipids •Classifications of Lipids –1. Simple lipids –2. Compound Lipids –3. Derived Lipids •Fatty Acids •Fats & oil •Saturated and unsaturated fatty acids •Uses of fats in the body •Physical and chemical properties of fats •Role of phospholipids in cell membranes.•Role of steroids (cholesterol ) •Distinguish between soap and detergents.
•Hydrophobic •amphiphilic •small molecules •the amphiphilic nature of some lipids allows them to form structures such as • •1. Vesicles –Liposomes •2. membranes in an aqueous environment Lipids
Examples of lipids •Fats •Waxes •Sterols •fat-soluble vitamins –(such as vitamins A, D, E, and K) •Glycerides –Monoglycerides –Diglycerides –Triglycerides •phospholipids.
