Test Questions

1. Dietary lipids are poorly soluble in water. How do lipolytic enzymes cope with them?

2. Clinical symptoms of steatorrhea are characterized by an excess of lipids in the feces, mostly due to two reasons: a) lack of bile acids secretion; b) lack of the pancreatic gland secretion. Why do these reasons lead to the appearance of lipids in the feces?

3. Explain why patients with decreased secretion of pancreatic bicarbonates suffer from steatorrhea even when the secretion of lipase and colipase is normal.

Laboratory work 2. Phospholipids. Cholesterol

Experiment 1. Extraction of phosphatides from brain tissue.

Put 5 g of brain tissue dried out with gypsum into a flask and add 10 ml of alcohol. Attach a reflux condenser and place for 15-20 minutes in preheated to 700C water bath. Shake from time to time. If a significant amount of the alcohol is evaporated, add some more. At the end of the extraction cool the flask and filter the extract.

Experiment 2. Qualitative reaction of lecithin with cadmium chloride.

Add 1 ml of saturated alcoholic solution of cadmium chloride to 2 ml of alcoholic solution of lecithin (experiment 1). A white flocculent precipitate of the complex compound of lecithin with cadmium chloride is observed. Cholesterol and vegetable oil solutions do not give this reaction.

Experiment 3. Extraction of cholesterol from the brain tissue.

Put 3 g of brain tissue dried out with gypsum into a clean dry test tube and add 6 ml of chloroform alcohol. Shake for 10 minutes. Filter the extract into a dry tube.

Experience 4. Qualitative reactions of cholesterol.

4.1. Schiff reaction.

In the test tube 1 ml of chloroform cholesterol solution is poured and 1 ml of concentrated sulfuric acid is carefully layered on the wall. On the boundary of liquids red ring appears.

4.2. Salkowski reaction.

After the Schiff reaction liquid is shaken. After emulsion separation the upper layer is colored in red, the lower one has a yellow-orange color with a green fluorescence.

4.3. Lieberman-Burchard reaction.

Add 0.5 ml of acetic anhydride and 2 drops of concentrated sulfuric acid into a test tube with1 ml of chloroform cholesterol solution. Mix well. A red colouring changing into purple and then blue and green is to be observed. The green colouring can be instantly observed due to the little amount of cholesterol.

Color reactions of cholesterol are determined by dehydration and oxidation of cholesterol under the influence of concentrated sulphuric acid and subsequent condensation of products with the formation of compounds with conjugated double bonds, which give different colored sulphuric acid derivatives.

Experience 5. Quantitative determination of total cholesterol in blood serum by the direct method by Zlatkis – Zak reaction.

The method is based on the reaction of cholesterol with acetic and sulphuric acids in the presence of ferric chloride.

Add 3 ml of concentrated acetic acid and 2 ml of ferric chloride process solution to 0,1 ml of blood serum and mix. Prepare the control by adding 3 ml of concentrated acetic acid and 2 ml of ferric chloride process solution to 0,1 ml of distilled water. Leave for 15 minutes.

Use the photoelectric colorimeter to mesure the optical dencity against the control at the wavelength of 510-560 nm (green filter) in a cuvette with a layer thickness of 1 cm.

Prepare dilutions from the standard cholesterol solution according to Table 4.
