What type of lipid is vitamin a?

I could be wrong but a vitamin is not a lipid. A lipid is a fat. Vitamin A could be a fat soluble vitamin, but I am not sure if it is. According to my Chem book, Vitamin A is a fat-soluble vitamin and is classified as a lipid. The lab book says to puncture a vitamin A capsule or use cod liver oil, so my guess is it is a triacylglycerol, i.e. an oil.


What is the effect of body fat on lipid soluble drug elimination?

Body fat can act as a reservoir for lipid-soluble drugs, leading to their prolonged presence in the body. This can slow down the elimination of lipid-soluble drugs, as they may remain stored in the fat tissue for longer periods of time, delaying their clearance from the body.


Is saturated fat a monomer of a lipid?

What confirmatory test could be performed to identify the oval fat bodies?

A confirmatory test that could be performed to identify oval fat bodies is the Sudan III stain test, which is used to specifically detect lipid material such as fat. Sudan III stains fat droplets orange to red under a microscope, aiding in the identification of oval fat bodies in urine sediment.
