distinct similarity between these two types of lipid is that they both have fatty acids chains that can either be saturated (carbon carbon single bonds) or unsaturated (at least 1 carbon -carbon double bond) Due to the chains without a double bond being able to pack more closely together they have a higher melting point than unsaturated fats. Steroids however have a different structure and are cyclic lipids with various side groups. Cholesterol is an example of a steroid. It is important in the

about the characterization of a fat/oil sample through three tests‚ namely the grease-spot test‚ saponification test‚ and unsaturation test. The procedures include the use of a filter paper divided into four sections and a drop of vegetable oil in a section; the same was done on lecithin‚ dichloromethane‚ and water and was heated. Oil‚ fat‚ and water were subjected into a saponification test using NaOH‚ and acidification using concentrated H2SO4. And lastly‚ oil‚ fat and glycerol were subjected into

including its solubility and its complexity with regards to its components. The test for solubility tagged along the aphorism “like dissolves like” since coconut oil was dissolved in chloroform‚ ether‚ and carbon tetrachloride. The emulsification of fats in coconut oil was also conducted and the only the dilute albumin solution showed a positive effect. The saponification reaction was also conducted which is the focal procedure in the production of soap. Cholesterol‚ a simple lipid‚ was also tested
