Featuring practical strategies and exciting experiments, Teaching
Innovations in Lipid Science addresses lipid education at a range
of levels from the novice to the graduate student and teacher.
Peer-reviewed contributions from internationally known specialists,
describe several methods and approaches designed to create new
lipid courses, modify existing courses, and serve as a basis for
pursuing novel avenues of instruction. Divided into two sections,
the first focuses on teaching strategies and outlines some of the
barriers that lipid science specialists face when transmitting
accurate information. It emphasizes the development and
implementation of creative programs that foster interest in lipid
science, and presents novel problem-solving approaches. It
discusses strategies for involving and evaluating independent study
students and explains the successful use of sample cards to teach
oilseed and cereal processing. This section also provides
generalized accounts of biotechnology and crop improvement and
isoprenoid biochemistry, including improvement of oilseed crops and
tips on explaining DNA science and crop biotechnology. The second
section begins with simple demonstrations on the physical
properties of lipids suitable for middle- and high school students.
It follows with more complex experiments on analyzing lipids in
food oils, plasma, and milk utilizing thin layer chromatography,
gas chromatography, and high performance liquid chromatography.
Contributions include information on convenient enzyme test kits
with exercises that can translate to a lab course beginning with
chromatographic methods for lipid analysis. The final chapter
presents theory and experiments for studying lipid metabolism in
the plastid by describing preparation methods, studying metabolite
uptake, and pathway analysis.
