A colloid can be distinguished from a true solution by its ability to scatter a beam of light, known as the Tyndall effect.

Because these acids were originally derived from fats, they are collectively referred to as fatty acids. This most-common form of animal fat serves as a storehouse for energy and as insulation against heat loss. On a molecular level it is constructed from three molecules of stearic acid and one of glycerol.

(Vesicles made using more saturated PC from mammalian sources have \(T_m\) of around 40ºC.) This high degree of unsaturation makes egg yolk PC very susceptible to oxidation, which could alter the properties of the liposome dramatically.

In the absence of other effects, cations migrate toward the electric field’s negatively charged cathode.

It involves the physical breakdown of food but does not alter its chemical makeup. Chemical digestion, on the other hand, is a complex process that reduces food into its chemical building blocks, which are then absorbed to nourish the cells of the body. In this section, you will look more closely at the processes of chemical digestion and absorption.
