Document Summary

Calculate the mean and sd for the iv and ffa data for each of the coded samples analyzed in class as part of your report. Iv and ffa values based on the times associated with the codes. The questions posed below are designed to elicit a better understanding of the principles and concepts the laboratory session attempts to demonstrate as well as touch upon the interpretation of the results obtained. Please answer these questions separately at the end of the laboratory write-up. (1) the oil samples on which iv analysis have been performed are samples that have been taken at specific times while being hydrogenated. What is happening here and why would one wish to hydrogenate edible oils? (2) for the ffa oil samples, lipase had been added to corn oil and samples taken over time as the reaction proceeds.
