Several analytical
routes can be taken to
characterize and analyze
the whole glycoglycerolipid pool in a lipid extract.
The choice depends on the information needed.
The lipidologist may ask ...
What is the amount of glycoglycerolipid
contained in this
sample ?
What is the fatty acid composition of the glycoglycerolipids
?
What is the sugar
composition of the glycoglycerolipids ?
