This looks to me like someone jacked it from their organic chemistry lab manual or textbook; it reads like a classic "Background On..." section. My organic chemistry lab did a trimyristin extraction from nutmeg, and the description was similar-- it's a classic easy student experiment (although in organic chemistry lab, "easy" is a very relative term...) The content is largely useless for this article and without the context of the textbook or lab manual, doesn't really make any sense-- there are already perfectly good (better, in fact) articles on esters, fats, and soap.
