What is BS EN 14108-Determination of sodium content in fat and oil derivatives about?
BS EN 14108 is a European standard on fat and oil derivatives that discusses the determination of sodium content in fat and oil derivatives to improve the quality of fat and oil derivatives.
BS EN 14108 specifies a method for the determination of sodium contents equal to or greater than 1 mg/kg.
The method under BS EN 14108 is applicable to fatty acid methyl esters intended for addition to mineral oils.
Who is BS EN 14108-Determination of sodium content in fat and oil derivatives for?
BS EN 14108 on the determination of sodium content in fat and oil derivatives is useful for:
- Food scientists
- Food technologists
- Food laboratories
- Food health and safety departments
Why should you use BS EN 14108-Determination of sodium content in fat and oil derivatives?
Sodium content is the residual sodium remaining in FAME after the vegetable oil transesterification reaction and the separation of so obtained glycerol.
BS EN 14108 provides you with guidance on apparatus, the procedure for sampling, preparation of the sample, preparation of the set of calibration solutions, spectrometric measurements, expression of results, precision, etc.
The methods and procedures provided by BS EN 14108 assist you in the determination of sodium in fat and oil derivatives, enhance FAME quality and improves a range of other properties, including taste and shelf-life qualities.
With obedience and compliance to BS EN 14108, you can enhance fat and oil derivatives’ effectiveness and efficacy, create new products, and launch them successfully in a global market.
