For the Third Edition, this well-known and highly successful book has been completely re-written and little remains of the earlier editions (published in 1973 and 1982) which have served analysts well for 30 years. Lipid Analysis is a practical guide, in one compact volume, to the complexities of the analysis of lipids. It is designed to act as a primary source, of value at the laboratory bench rather than residing on a library shelf. Lipid Analysis is already regarded worldwide as the leading book on the subject and most lipid analysts will have used one or both of the earlier editions.

The contents include chapters on:

Lipids: their structures and occurrence
Chromatographic analysis of lipids
Extraction, storage and sample handling
Simple lipid classes
Phospholipids and glycosyldiacylglycerols
Sphingolipids
Preparation of fatty acid derivatives
GC analysis of fatty acids
Isolation of fatty acids and identification by spectroscopic and chemical degradative techniques
Molecular species of acylglycerols derived from complex lipids
Molecular species of intact phospholipids and glycolipids
Positional distributions of fatty acids in glycerolipids.
