Lipid Essentials Literature - Highlights - 2012

This list was created by means of a weekly literature search with a highly subjective scan to select those papers that appeared helpful to me for updating the Lipid Essentials or Blog pages on this site. They are mainly review articles dealing with the chemistry, occurrence and biochemistry of lipids, and the nutritional/clinical literature is under represented here. Please note that I may only select references from journals to which I have direct access, or will have access after a period specified by the journal (usually 6 to 24 months). References are listed alphabetically by the first author. Further references may be added at any time as we become aware of them.
