Lipids Fats, Oils, and Waxes
Types of Lipids 1. Triglycerides • 95% of all eaten/stored 2. Phospholipids • Soluble in oil and water 3. Sterols • 4 fused ring structure
Triglycerides • Glycerol + 3 Fatty Acids = Triglycerides (Dehydration Synthesis)
Triglycerides (continued) Fatty acid chains can be: • Saturated – single bonds many hydrogens • Unsaturated- double bond(s) fewer hydrogens -mono or polyunsaturated

Triglyceride- properties • Non-polar = insoluble in water • Solid (fat) or Liquid (oil) at room temperature • High boiling points • Energy
Energy from Triglycerides • More chemical bonds to break Therefore • Provide much energy • Triglycerides [9kcal/g] > 2X Glucose [4kcal/g]
Uses of Edible Fats and Oils • Baking – moist tender and aerating • Emulsification- monoglycerides and phospholipids allow mixing of oil and water • Frying - high temperatures sear foods quickly and add flavor
Types Of Fatty Acid Chains • Saturated – single bonds, many H’s • Unsaturated • Monounsaturated – 1 double bond • Polyunsaturated – 2 or more double bonds
Phospholipids • F.A. chains with Phosphate group attachment • Partially soluble • Ex.- lechithin in soy and egg yolk • Cell membranes = phospholipid bilayer
Sterols • Large, 4-ring structures Ex’s – • Bile salts • Hormones • Cholesterol -used to stabilize cell membranes -also deposits on artery walls
Digestion of Lipids • Chime moves from stomach to duodenum • Emulsification – bile mixes with chime • Enzyme - Lipase from pancreas
