Summary
  • It is accompanied by a reference section taken from the Chapman & Hall Chemical Database which gives physical properties and literature references for over 3000 lipids and their derivatives providing chemists with instant access to qualitative as well as quantitative information on lipids, saving them both time and money.
  • The new edition of The Lipid Handbook covers all aspects of the occurrence, isolation, chemical identification and technological applications of this large and vital class of natural products. The principal part of the book is an authoritative monograph which is an essential resource for all lipid chemists and biochemists working within academic, industrial or governmental organizations.
