We have discussed various databases on carbohydrates and small molecules, however we have yet to touch on lipids.

The LipidBank began in 1989 and now contains just over 7000 structures.

The database can be refined by name, source, chemical synthesis, biological activity or formula as well as by type (fatty acids, soluble vitamins and phospholipids). The lipids within the database contain structural, spectral and literature information. Although the database has not been updated to since 2007 it is certainly useful.
