Lipid Biochemistry, fifth edition has been largely re-written in a user-friendly way, with chapters containing special interest topic boxes, summary points and lists of suggested reading, further enhancing the accessibility and readability of this excellent text.     Contents include abbreviations and definitions used in the study of lipids, routine analytical methods, fatty acid structure and metabolism, dietary lipids and lipids as energy stores, lipid transport, lipids in cellular structures and the metabolism of structural lipids. The book provides a most comprehensive treatment of the subject, making it essential reading for all those working with or studying lipids.     Upper level students of biochemistry, biology, clinical subjects, nutrition and food science will find the contents of this book invaluable as a study aid, as will postgraduates specializing in the topics covered in the book. Professionals working in research in academia and industry, including personnel involved in food and nutrition research, new product formulation, special diet formulation (including nutraceuticals and functional foods) and other clinical aspects will find a vast wealth of information within the book's pages.     Michael Gurr was a Visiting Professor in Human Nutrition at the University of Reading, UK and at Oxford Brookes University, UK. John Harwood is a Professor of Biochemistry at the School of Biosciences, Cardiff University, UK. Keith Frayn is a Professor of Human Metabolism at the Oxford Centre for Diabetes, Endocrinology and Metabolism, University of Oxford, UK.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51572515995921,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":51572517273873,"sku":"GOR002135934","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0632054093.jpg?v=1751262379"},{"product_id":"lipid-biochemistry-book-michael-i-gurr-9780412266102","title":"Lipid Biochemistry","description":"This book provides coverage of all aspects of lipid biochemistry and is intended for undergraduates, although it will also be useful for postgraduates and research workers as a first reference. This fourth edition has been rewritten and restructured to incorporate recent advances and to present a broader range of material. The organization of the content is based on an approach which classifies lipids primarily in terms of their functions in living organisms, rather than according to chemical structure. The first chapters deals with definitions, terminology and chemical classifications, and the second with isolation, separation and detection of lipids. Subsequent chapters, each of which incorporates a brief outline of the lipids, then discuss their biochemistry and functions. A feature of this edition is a more detailed treatment of the nutritional and chemical aspects of lipids. The book takes examples from a wide range of living organisms, including microorganisms and higher plants, as well as animals. The book is illustrated and cross-referenced for the convenience of the reader.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52687574434065,"sku":"NLS9780412266102","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52735219564817,"sku":"NIN9780412266102","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9780412266102.jpg?v=1762330832"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/collections\/author-books-by-michael-i-gurr.oembed","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
