PD CEN ISO/TS 22115:2021

This standard PD CEN ISO/TS 22115:2021 Animal and vegetable fats and oils. Separation of lipid classes by capillary gas chromatography (fingerprint method) is classified in these ICS categories:

• 67.200.10 Animal and vegetable fats and oils

This method is suitable for the semi-quantitative analysis of oils, fats and oil/fat-related samples (deodistillates). Screening of oils, fats and oil/fat-related samples to obtain main (e.g. TAGs) and minor component (e.g. sterols, sterol esters, tocopherols, squalene, wax esters, fatty alcohols, and glycerol) information in one single analysis. For a truly quantitative analysis of pre-identified compound classes specific methods are more appropriate. Beside the (semi-)quantitative determination of the oil/fat composition mentioned above, the method can also be used as a useful qualitative screening tool for the relative comparison of sample compositions.
