BS EN ISO 29822:2014

This standard BS EN ISO 29822:2014 Vegetable fats and oils. Isomeric diacylglycerols. Determination of relative amounts of 1,2- and 1,3-diacylglycerols is classified in these ICS categories:

• 67.200.10 Animal and vegetable fats and oils

This International Standard specifies the determination of the degree of isomerization of diacylglycerols in vegetable fats and oils. 1,2-Diacylglycerols are transformed to the more stable 1, 3-isomers during storage or due to acidic catalysed reaction.

The mass fraction of 1,2-diacylglycerols can be used as a quality criterion for vegetable fats and oils.
