In this form most of the fat of the normal liver, and quite likely of other, cells is stored until required for metabolic purposes; much is liberated from the cells of the liver for utilisation and storage elsewhere in the body.

In addition to these bio-syntheses there are important catabolic processes that make energy available to the cell. Fatty acids, for instance, are broken down to simpler carbon products as part of a process of oxidation which yields COo and water, with liberation of.
