Summary It has been shown that the glyceride‐type composition of a natural fat can be calculated from the total mol per cent of saturated acids and the total mol per cent of trisaturated glycerides, in accord with a new rule of glyceride‐type distribution, which is stated as follows: The glyceride‐type composition of any natural fat is that obtained by interchange, according to chance, of one‐third of the saturated acids represented by the difference between the GS 2 content required by chance and that actually present with the unsaturated acids in the fat, without allowing the formation of any further GS 3 .
