Microwave heating of whole soybeans resulted in an apparent increase of the total lipids. Molecular species of triacylglycerols were isolated from total lipids by a combination of silicic acid column chromatography and AgNO 3 ‐thin layer chromatography (TLC). Fifteen molecular species of triacylglycerols were still found in whole soybeans following heat treatment. Microwave heating for about 5 min did not change all molecular species of soybean triacylglycerols nor cause a loss of unsaturated heat fatty acids. However, heat treatment for 8 min significant decrease not only in molecular species containing more than four double bonds, but also in the amount of diene and triene present in a triacylglycerol.
