Iodine number

• measures the degree of un-saturation in a given amount of fat or oil

• the iodine number is the number of grams of iodine absorbed by 100 g of fat

• Cottonseed oil: 103 –111• Olive oil: 79 – 88• Linseed oil: 175 –202

• frequently used to determine adulteration of commercial lots of oils

Reichert–Meissl number

• measures the amount of volatile fatty acids (low MW and water soluble Fats)

• the R-M number is the number of milliliters of 0.1N alkali required to neutralize the soluble fatty acids distilled from 5 g of fat

It is a omnipresent component of animal cell membranes, where it is the most abundant sphingolipid. It can comprise as much as 50% of the lipids in certain tissues.It is usually lower in concentration than phosphatidylcholine

2-Ether glycerophospholipids• Possess an ether linkage instead of an acyl

group at the C-1 position of glycerol– platelet activating factor (PAF)

– A potent mediator in inflammation, allergic response and shock, also responsible for asthma-like symptom

– The ether linkage is stable in either acid or base

– Plasmalogens: cis , -unsaturated ethers• The alpha/beta unsaturated ether can be

hydrolyzed more easily

GLYCOLIPIDS• Cerebrosides

• One sugar molecule– Galactocerebroside – Glucocerebrosides

• Sulfatides or sulfogalactocerebrosides• A sulfuric acid ester of galactocerebroside

• Globosides: ceramide oligosaccharides• Lactosylceramide

– 2 sugars ( eg. lactose)

• Gangliosides• Have a more complex oligosaccharide attached• Biological functions: cell-cell recognition; receptors for

CHOLESTEROL FACTS

It is synthesized from acetyl CoA and eliminated as bile acids

It is a precursor of all other steroids in the body

It is a product of animal metabolism – found in foods of animal origin

It is an amphipathic lipid (hydrophobic and hydrophilic portions)

stored in the form ester in most of tissues.
