Source sentences:
text: A lipid is any biological molecule that is soluble in nonpolar solvents.
text: Lipids are organic compounds that are readily soluble in nonpolar solvent (e.g. ether)
text: The fact that lipids are soluble in organic solvents, but insoluble in water, provides the food analyst with a convenient method of separating the lipid components in foods from water soluble components, such as proteins, carbohydrates and minerals.

text: More important for biological systems, the carbon-to-hydrogen bonds are nonpolar covalent, which means that lipids are fat soluble and will not dissolve in water.
text: They are soluble in organic solvents, however, and that’s because lipids are created from similar elements in carbohydrates.
text: Lipids are hydrophobic, and thus are poorly soluble in the aqueous environment of the digestive tract.
text: In biology and biochemistry, a lipid is a biomolecule that is soluble in nonpolar solvents.
