We show that a semigroup satisfying a heterotypical identity of which at least one side has no repeated variable is saturated and find sufficient conditions on a homotypical identity which is not a permutation identity and of which at least one side has no repeated variable, to ensure that any semigroup satisfying the identity is saturated.
