These methods are utilised for oxidation analyses in oils, foods, feed and other biological materials.
Choice of the extraction methods, i.e. the extraction chemicals, and the practical implementation of the method are of great importance for the result. This has been shown through collaborative trials.
Oxidation is also measured by an optical method (chemiluminescence) and by gas chromatographic analyses of the volatile components that are formed.
Methods have also been developed to determine a product's potential storage stability.
Relevant issues:
- Analyses for oxidation and method development
- Analyses for oxidation and extraction methods
- The significance of the raw material quality on the product's quality and storage stability
- Raw material and product: Optimising of storage conditions
- The raw material's lipid composition and oxidation potential
