LIPIDS IN FOODS: CHEMISTRY AND NOMENCLATURE
Irena B. King
INTRODUCTION
Lipids are chemically diverse compounds which can be extracted from animal, plant, and microbial sources with a variety of methods. There is no universal definition of the term lipid. Lipids are usually described, broadly, as those compounds which are insoluble in water and soluble in selected organic solvents such as chloroform, hexane, benzene, diethyl ether, or methanol.1 Christie2 recommends a more constricted definition that closely reflects the origins of the term, i.e., “lipids are fatty acids and their derivatives, and substances related biosynthetically or functionally to these compounds”. In foods, especially those high in fat, lipids are predominantly triesters of fatty acids with glycerol as a main derivative. The purpose of this discussion is to briefly review the nomenclature, structure, and classification of the major lipids normally found in foods.
NOMENCLATURE
The Commission on Biochemical Nomenclature (CBN) formed by the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) and the International Union of Biochemistry (IUB) has established appropriate nomenclature for lipid terminology.3 However, in addition to the systematic names, lipid nomenclature often includes a shorthand notation and a wide range of trivial names which are firmly established in the literature of lipid methodology.
The systematic names of fatty acids are based on the CBN nomenclature and indicate the carbon length, position, and configuration of the double bond (Table 1).
CLASSIFICATION
Lipids are most clearly classified into simple, complex, and derived lipids (Table 2). The simple lipids have a fatty acid ester or ether linkage with alcohols. The complex lipids contain other groups in addition to fatty acids with simple derivatives. The derived lipids include compounds obtained by hydrolysis from simple and complex lipids.
Fatty Acids
Although fatty acids are major building blocks of simple and complex lipids, they occur naturally only in trace amounts in this unesterified form and are usually obtained by hydrolysis of the backbone derivatives (glycerols, sterols, or fatty alcohols). There are more than 1000 different kinds of fatty acids identified; fortunately, only a small fraction of these are important from the perspective of food analysis. All fatty acids have a hydrocarbon chain and a carboxyl terminal. Fatty acids differ from each other primarily in chain length and in the number, position, and configuration of the double bonds (Figure 1).
Fatty acids can be either saturated or unsaturated. The saturated fatty acids do not contain any double bonds, while the unsaturated ones have at least one double bond. Fatty acids that have only one double bond are known as monounsaturated; those that have two or more bonds are polyunsaturated. The double bonds can be designated from carboxyl or methyl ends. The presence of the double bond allows for configurational isomerism in cis or trans position. Naturally occurring fatty acids are mostly in the cis configuration.

Acylglycerols
Acylglycerols are esters of fatty acids and glycerol as shown in Figure 2. Although they are often called glycerides or neutral lipids, neither term is recommended by the standard nomenclature rules. One, two, or three fatty acids may be attached to the glycerol backbone, resulting in mono-, di-, or triacylglycerols, respectively. Triacylglycerols are the most abundant in foods. Although the three acyl groups may be identical in nature, the fatty acids are...
