This document describes several tests that can be used to analyze fatty acids and oils, including solubility tests to determine saturation, the use of CCL4 and bromine water to test for unsaturation, the acrolein test for rancidity, saponification to form soaps, salting out using salts like CaCl2 and MgCl2 to separate soaps from glycerol, and the formation of insoluble soaps that can precipitate from solutions.
