Editat de E. P. Meran Keshawa, Somi Kim Cho
en Limba Engleză Paperback – sep 2025
Biology of Fatty Acids: Biochemical, Nutritional and Pharmacological Functions provides a comprehensive overview of fatty acids and their critical roles in biological systems. The book begins by discussing the sources of plant-derived fatty acids and moves on to categorize various types, including saturated and unsaturated fatty acids. The structural characteristics and biological functionalities of these molecules are meticulously examined, making it an essential resource for those interested in biochemistry and nutritional science. Additionally, the function of fatty acids as epigenetic modulators and disease biomarkers underscores their significance in both health and disease.

The book delves into diverse categories such as odd- and even-chain fatty acids, short-chain fatty acids, and halogenated fatty acids. It also explores fatty acids with c-c triple bonds and their unique biological effects. The text highlights dietary fatty acids and their structural features, emphasizing their role in health. Methods for fatty acid analysis are thoroughly discussed, providing valuable guidance for researchers. The book concludes by looking at future developments, offering a forward-thinking perspective on the study of fatty acids.

  • Discusses the role of fatty acids as epigenetic modifiers and disease biomarkers
