Lipids are a group of naturally occurring molecules that include monoglycerides, diglycerides, trigylcerides, fats, sterols and others. Lipids define and preserve cellular membrane integrity and play an important role in cellular processes such as membrane trafficking, signal transduction and energy storage. Dysregulation of lipid metabolism is linked to many diseases like cancer, diabetes and heart disease. Traditionally, the Folch method of organic extraction of lipids is preferred, in which lipids are extracted into a bottom organic phase. Isolating the lipids from this lower fraction is tricky and can in part cause isolation of other phases as well. This leads to low purity of lipid samples which might negatively affect or hinder downst
