    At low temperatures, the lipids are laterally ordered and organized in the membrane, and the lipid chains are mostly in the all-trans configuration and pack well together. The melting temperature T m {\displaystyle T_{m}} of a membrane is defined as the temperature across which the membrane transitions from a crystal-like to a fluid-like ...

    Chemical structure of the conjugated fatty acid rumenic acid, an isomer of conjugated linoleic acid. Conjugated fatty acids is jargon for polyunsaturated fatty acids containing at least one pair of conjugated double bonds. [1] An example of a conjugated fatty acid is the rumenic acid, found in the meat and milk of ruminants.
