Triglyceride

freebase

 
Triglyceride (help·info) (more properly known as triacylglycerol (help·info), TAG or triacylglyceride) is a glyceride in which the glycerol is esterified with three fatty acids. It is the main constituent of vegetable oil and animal fats. Triglycerides are formed from a single molecule of glycerol, combined with three fatty acids on each of the OH groups, and make up most of fats digested by... Read enhanced Wikipedia article

Results for "triglycerides give salts"

Biodiesel production Water is removed because its presence causes the triglycerides to hydrolyze, giving salts of the fatty acids (soaps) instead of undergoing transesterification to give biodiesel.

Results for "triglycerides give clue"

Malabsorption Low cholesterol or triglyceride may give clue toward fat malabsorption as low calcium and phosphate toward osteomalacia from low vitamin D.

Results for "triglycerides contain radicals"

Saturated fat Saturated fat is fat that consists of triglycerides containing only saturated fatty acid radicals.

Results for "triglycerides contain mixture"

Interesterified fat The triglycerides contain a mixture of saturated, monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fatty acids.

Results for "triglycerides contain acids"

Interesterified fat A triglyceride containing three saturated fatty acids is generally solid at room temperature and not very desirable for many applications.

Results for "triglycerides contain groups"

Natural oil polyols There are a limited number of naturally occurring vegetable oils (triglycerides) which contain the unreacted hydroxyl groups that account for both the name and important reactivity of these polyols.

cause :

Results for "triglycerides cause increase"

Acid value As oil-fats rancidify, triglycerides are converted into fatty acids and glycerol, causing an increase in acid number.

Results for "triglycerides cause disease"

Triglyceride Another disease caused by high triglycerides is pancreatitis.

Results for "triglycerides cause damage"

Wolman disease Wolman disease is marked by accumulation of cholesteryl esters (normally a transport form of cholesterol) and triglycerides (a chemical form in which fats exist in the body) that can build up significantly and cause damage in the cells and tissues.
