Triolein
Triolein is a symmetrical triglyceride derived from glycerol and three units of the unsaturated fatty acid oleic acid. Most triglycerides are unsymmetrical, being derived from mixtures of fatty acids. Triolein represents 4–30% of olive oil. Triolein is also known as glyceryl trioleate and is one of the two components of Lorenzo's oil. The oxidation of triolein is according to the formula:
 + 80  → 57  + 52 

This gives a respiratory quotient of  or 0.7125. The heat of combustion is  per mole or  per gram. Per mole of oxygen it is . References
