Catalysis of the reaction: triacylglycerol + H2O = diacylglycerol + a fatty acid anion. Catalysis of the hydrolysis of various bonds, e.g. C-O, C-N, C-C, phosphoric anhydride bonds, etc. Hydrolase is the systematic name for any enzyme of EC class 3. Catalysis of the reaction: H2O + acylglycerol = a fatty acid + glycerol. Catalysis of the hydrolysis of any ester bond. Catalysis of the hydrolysis of a glycerophospholipid. Catalysis of the reaction: 1,2-diacyl-3-beta-D-galactosyl-sn-glycerol + 2 H2O = 3-beta-D-galactosyl-sn-glycerol + 2 carboxylates. Catalysis of the reaction: triacylglycerol + H2O = diacylglycerol + a carboxylate. Catalysis of the hydrolysis of a lipid or phospholipid.
