Features
Why is hydrolysis important for exhaustive fat extractions?
In many matrices fat is naturally encased or chemically bound. Therefore, hydrolysis is required to transform lipids into extractable forms. Hydrochloric acid disrupts cells walls, hydrolyses proteins / polysaccharides, and breaks lipid-carbohydrate bonds.
