What is ISO 12966-4- Determination of fatty acid methyl esters (FAMEs) in animal and vegetable fats and oils about?

ISO 12966 is an international standard that discusses the determination of FAMEs in animal and vegetable fats and oils for determining the total fat content in foods. ISO 12966-4 is the fourth part of a multi-part series that specifies a method for the determination of fatty acid methyl esters (FAMEs) derived by transesterification or esterification from fats, oils, and fatty acids by capillary gas chromatography (GLC).
