Abstract
This review surveys analytical techniques (microscopy, nephelometry, light scattering, centrifugation, flocculation, electrophoresis, chromatography, filtration), summarizes analytical findings on the structure of fat particles (associated proteins, surfactant layer, triglyceride core), and interprets physiological data (formation of chylomicrons, passage through lymphatic channels, removal of fat particles from blood plasma, removal by the liver, conversion in the liver, removal of particles by adipose tissue, heterogeneity of particles in circulation, mobilization of fat from storage, role of lipoprotein lipase in particle clearance).Keywords
