Structure
Glycerol + two fatty acids + phosphate group
Functions
Component of cell membranes
Lipid transport as part of lipoproteins
Emulsifiers
Food sources
Egg yolks, liver, soybeans, peanuts
Mouth and stomach
Minimal digestion of triglycerides
Small intestine
Emulsified by phospholipids
Digested by pancreatic lipase
Absorbed into intestinal cells
Formed into chylomicrons and move
Stomach
Hydrochloric acid
Prepares protein for digestion
Activates enzymes
Pepsin
Begins protein digestion
Gastric lipase
Some fat digestion
Gastrin (hormone)
Stimulates gastric secretion and movement
Intrinsic factor
Needed for absorption of vitamin B12
Small intestine
Sections of small intestine
Duodenum, jejunum, ileum
Digestion
Bicarbonate neutralizes stomach acid
Pancreatic
& other polar molecules in skin.
3. Occlusive vehicles :
①Suppress transepidermal water loss.
② Increase absorption of actives.
Other factors effect penetration of active.
⇒Table 14.
4-1. An active with an acidic pH should be formulated with a pH that is acidic to neutral.
4-2. Actives with a basic pH should be formulated in vehicles that are neutral to slightly basic.
proteins, but there are (as of July 2011) no known structures of any OR. There is a highly conserved sequence in roughly three quarters of all ORs that is a tripodal metal ion binding site, and Suslick has proposed that the ORs are in fact metalloproteins (mostly likely with zinc, copper and possibly manganese ions) that serve as a Lewis Acid site for binding of many odorant molecules.
