They are sometimes defined as amphiphilic or hydrophobic small molecules. Hydrocarbons that are used to dissolve other naturally occurring hydrocarbon lipid molecules, which do not dissolve in water such as waxes sterols, triglycerides, fatty acids, etc., are called non-polar solvents. Lipids perform various biological functions that include signaling, acting as structural components of the cell membrane and storing energy. It encompasses molecules such as fatty acids and their derivatives as well as other sterol-containing metabolites such as cholesterol. Their applications are present in nanotechnology as well as in the cosmetic and food industries. Lipids are divided into various categories such as prenol lipids, glycerolipids, sphingolipids, sterol lipids, etc. Different approaches, evaluations, methodologies and advanced studies on lipids have been included in this book. It presents this complex subject in the most comprehensible and easy to understand language. This book is a resource guide for experts as well as students.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Theo Stewart\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1641162600\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781641162609\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Callisto Reference\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/08\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 222\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.66lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.88h x 8.00w x 0.56d","brand":"Theo Stewart","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47001689686271,"sku":"9781641162609","price":145.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_d8b362c7-a3d0-4429-b4d3-d7ac38ee1313.jpg?v=1751601838","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/lipids-theo-stewart-9781641162609","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
