The saponification value is the amount of base required to saponify a fat sample. For soap making, the triglycerides are highly purified, but saponification includes other base hydrolysis of unpurified triglycerides, for example, the conversion of the fat of a corpse into adipocere, often called grave wax.
The Carb Count in Carrots. Fresh carrots Photo Credit Alicja Bochenek/iStock/Getty Images. One medium carrot has about 6 grams of carbohydrates. One-half cup of baby carrots -- the amount the American Diabetes Association suggests for a midday snack -- also contains about 6 grams of carbs. Because carrots have so much fiber, they affect metabolism differently than other carbs.
Baby carrots calories can add up quickly if you eat them mindlessly and add dip. Low carb dieters and people who need to limit carbohydrate intake might also be concerned about the carbs in carrots. There are six grams of carbs per carrot and three grams of sugar, more than many other vegetables.
