Analysis of edible fats and oils
In the Bulletin the following analytical methods are described and, as far as possible, documented with examples of curves and instrument reports:
- Water content by the Karl Fischer method
- Oxidation stability by the Rancimat method (AOCS Cd 12b-92)
- Iodine number
- Peroxide number
- Saponification number
- Acid number, acid value and free fatty acids (FFA)
- Hydroxyl number
- Nickel traces, polarographic
In these methods particular care has been taken not to use chlorinated solvents.
