A simple, relatively rapid quantitative procedure for obtaining the unsaponifiable matter from butteroil is described. The oil is saponified without a solvent by merely blending the oil with aqueous KOH in a mortar and heating. The unsaponifiable matter is extracted from the soaps with benzene after grinding the soaps onto Celite.
