Abstract
Lipid globules were isolated and characterized both chemically and morphologically. They were composed mainly of triglyceride and free sterol, which accounted for over 90% of the total globule content. Smaller amounts of diglyceride, carotenoid, free fatty acid, phospholipid and protein were found. No sterol esters or monoglycerides were detected. Morphologically, the isolated lipid globules resembled the lipid globules in situ. They were spherical, 0.4–1.5 μm in diameter and lacked a trilaminar membrane.Keywords
