Cholesterol is a lipidic, waxy alcohol found in the cell membranes and transported in the blood plasma of all animals[2]. It is an essential component of mammalian cell membranes where it is required to establish proper membrane permeability and fluidity. Cholesterol is the principal sterol synthesized by animals, but small quantities are synthesized in other eukaryotes, such as plants and fungi. It is almost completely absent among prokaryotes, which include bacteria.[3] Cholesterol is classified as a sterol (a portmanteau of steroid and alcohol).
