Phosphatide is also known as Glycerophospholipid.

Phosphatides (phospholipids) are a class of lipids with a hydrophilic phosphate-containing head and two hydrophobic fatty acid tails. They can be derived from plant sources (e.g. soy lecithin, sunflower lecithin) or animal sources (e.g. egg yolk, animal fats), so their vegan status depends on the source.
