Alcohols derived from the steroids; including cholesterol, ergosterol in yeast, sitosterol and stigmasterol in plants, and coprosterol in faeces.<\/p>\n
Fats bound to plant fibers, with protective agents.<\/p>\n
An alcohol of high molecular weight, such as cholesterol and ergosterol.<\/p>\n
An insoluble substance which belongs to the steroid alcohols, e.g. cholesterol.<\/p>\n
A four-ring structure typical of all steroid molecules.<\/p>\n
One of a group of steroid alcohols. The most important sterols are cholesterol and ergosterol.<\/p>\n
One of a group of substances (such as cholesterol) with a cyclic nucleus and alcohol moiety. They are found free or esterified with fatty acids (cholesterides). They are found in animals (zoosterols) or in plants (phytosterols). They are generally colorless, crystalline compounds, non-saponifiable and soluble in certain organic solvents.<\/p>\n
A collection of lipids comprising of a multi-ringed structure, exemplified by cholesterol.<\/p>\n
Steroidal alcohols, such as cholesterol, are abundantly found throughout the body, widely distributed in various tissues.<\/p>\n
