Fat and oil derivatives. Fatty Acid Methyl Esters (FAME). Determination of free and total glycerol and mono-, di-, triglyceride contents
What is BS EN 14105 about?
BS EN 14105 specifies a method to determine the free glycerol and residual mono-, di- and triglyceride contents in fatty acid methyl esters (FAME). The total glycerol content is then calculated from the obtained results. Under the conditions described, the quantification limits are 0,001 % (m/m) for free glycerol, 0,10 % (m/m) for all glycerides (mono-, di- and tri-). This method is suitable for FAME prepared from rapeseed, sunflower, soybean, palm, animal oils and fats and a mixture of them. It is not suitable for FAME produced from or containing coconut and palm kernel oils derivatives because of the overlapping of different glyceride peaks. NOTE 1: For the purposes of this document, the term “% (m/m)” is used to represent the mass fraction. NOTE 2: Under the common EN 14105
