OCR AS Biology - Lipids
  1. Biochemical Test
    1. Ethanol Emulsion test
      1. Step 1-Mix the sample with ethanol
        1. This dissolves any lipid present
        2. Step 2- Pour the liquid into water in another clean test tube
          1. Step 3-If lipid is present a cloudy white emulsion will form near the top of the water
            1. The lipid comes out of solution and becomes dispersed as tiny droplets in the water
        3. Types of Lipids
          1. Triglyceride
            1. 1 Glycerol 3 Fatty Acids
              1. Joined by Condensation to form 3 covalent bonds
                1. Compact energy store insoluble in water so doesn't affect cell water potential
