Saponifiable Lipids
Saponifiable lipids contain fatty acids, which are monocarboxylic acids that may or may not be unsaturated. When subjected to alkaline hydrolysis, they undergo saponification, forming soaps (salts of fatty acids). Examples include glycerides, waxes, phospholipids, and sphingolipids.
