OCR AS Biology - Lipids
Biochemical Test
Ethanol Emulsion test
Step 1-Mix the sample with ethanol
This dissolves any lipid present
Step 2- Pour the liquid into water in another clean test tube
Step 3-If lipid is present a cloudy white emulsion will form near the top of the water
The lipid comes out of solution and becomes dispersed as tiny droplets in the water
Types of Lipids
Triglyceride
1 Glycerol 3 Fatty Acids
Joined by Condensation to form 3 covalent bonds
Compact energy store insoluble in water so doesn't affect cell water potential
Ester links
Stored as fat
Thermal insulation
Protective purpose
Phospholipids
1 Glycerol 2 Fatty Acids 1 Phosphate Group
Enter text here
Phosphate group may have carbohydrate parts attatched
Involved in Cell Signalling
Molecule is part hydrophobic and part hydrophilic
Ideal for cell membranes
Cholesterol
Small,thin molecule that fits into the lipid bilayer giving strength and stability
4 Carbon based ring structures
Steroid hormones
Testosterone
Oestrogen
Key Components
Glycerol
Glycerol molecule always the same
3 Carbon molecule with three OH groups
Fatty Acids
Molecule can differ significantly
Have an acid group at one end
Functions
Energy Source
Steroid Hormones
Insulation
Component of Cell Membranes
Protection
Energy Store
Key Features
Release large amounts of energy when respired
Contains Carbon,Hydrogen and small amounts of oxygen
Different types of fatty acids
C=C Unsatured
Common in plants
Cause fatty acid chains to push apart from other chains
More C=C chains = oils
More fluid
C-C Satured
Common in animals
Called fats
Less fluid
Solid at room temperature
Insoluble in water
Less dense than water
