(Problem with reference 6)

Please give us a hand with the problem wih refrence 6. I do not understand what is wrong here Jparcoeur (talk) 19:58, 15 November 2016 (UTC)

• I think "Lipids are fats" should have to be "fats are lipids". Anyone please reply.--G.Kiruthikan (talk) 05:35, 9 December 2017 (UTC)

Outline of changes

The majority of lipids found in the body are Triglycerides, fatty acids, cholesterol, and lipid membranes. The first step of the lipid metabolism is solubilization. Lipid absorption: the detailed information about the breaking of fatty acids need to be taken out, instead a link to fatty acid break down should be linked. The picture needs to be captioned, the picture doesn’t show how fatty acids are absorbed into the epithelial cells. It shows the breaking of fatty acids. Triglycerides cleave into fatty acid and then are taken up by epithelial cells. Then they are combined back in triglycerides and become packaged in chilomicrons and they move to the liver. A brief section about the biosynthesis of the lipids should be included. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rojinbkht (talk • contribs) 23:59, 15 February 2018 (UTC)

Non-biologist's repair of garble

   I found a colleague had changed

metabolism

to read

metaboln m

I started out trying to fix that, without paying attention to further garbling by the next colleague who edited. [Picture my right hand slapping my left hand, with a comic strip speech bubble reading "Bad editor-hand!"] Time to "start from scratch" (or rather, to self-revert and start over).

Mistake with Acyl CoA Dehydrogenase

The image shown, titled 'Beta oxidation of palmitic acid' is mostly correct, but incorrectly shows that FAD is converted to FADH. The reaction is instead FAD --> FADH_2. This may be confirmed to be a mistake by referencing other diagrams on the matter, as well as Wikipedia's own image here: File:LCHAD deficiency.svg, and the net reaction in this article '7 FAD + 7 NAD⁺ + 7 CoASH + 7 H₂O + H(CH₂CH₂)₇CH₂CO-SCoA → 8 CH₃CO-SCoA + 7 FADH₂ + 7 NADH + 7 H⁺' (I have emboldened the FADH2).

I have corrected the image on my own but am unsure how to. Showder98 (talk) 03:52, 30 April 2023 (UTC)
