Lipid Digestion The process of mastication is our only conscious act in the digestion of the foods we consume. After that‚ it’s out of sight‚ out of mind; but should it be? What does it take to transform that last swallow into the energy our body needs to sustain itself? In the case of lipid digestion‚ the real magic occurs throughout the gastrointestinal tract with a synergistic collaboration from the accessory organs: the liver‚ gallbladder and pancreas. Understanding the whole process of digestion

diffusion‚ exocytosis and endocytosis‚ and transport. It can be damaged by stress such as changes in the phospholipid bilayer (Reece et al‚ 2011). Changes to the hydrophilic bilayer causes breakdown of the components of the cell membrane‚ phosphate and glycerol. Determining the Betacyanin leakage will illustrate the damage caused to the membrane. The beet cells are being exposed to different temperatures and their Betacyanin concentrations are being analysed. This test is being done to see if extreme high

triglycerides; three molecules of fatty acids are attached to a single molecule of glycerol.[2] The alkaline solution‚ which is often called lye‚ (although the term "lye soap" refers almost exclusively to soaps made with sodium hydroxide) brings about a chemical reaction known as saponification. In saponification‚ the fats are first hydrolyzed into free fatty acids‚ which then combine with the alkali to form crude soap. Glycerol (glycerine) is liberated and is either left in or washed out and recovered as

Lipogenesis is the process by which simple sugars such as glucose are converted to fatty acids‚ which are subsequently esterified with glycerol to form the triacylglycerols that are packaged in VLDL and secreted from the liver.occurs in the cytosol of cells. Lipogenesis encompasses the processes of fatty acid synthesis and subsequent triglyceride synthesis.Lipogenesis starts with acetyl-CoA and builds up by the addition of two carbons units. The synthesis occurs in the cytoplasm in contrast

Citric acid cycle From Wikipedia‚ the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation‚ search [pic] [pic] Overview of the citric acid cycle The citric acid cycle — also known as the tricarboxylic acid cycle (TCA cycle)‚ the Krebs cycle‚ or the Szent-Györgyi-Krebs cycle‚ [1][2] — is a series of enzyme-catalysed chemical reactions‚ which is of central importance in all living cells that use oxygen as part of cellular respiration. In eukaryotic cells‚ the citric acid cycle occurs in the matrix of the mitochondrion
