Animal and vegetable fats and oils. Determination of fatty-acid-bound chloropropanediols (MCPDs) and glycidol by GC/MS - Method using acid transesterification and measurement for 2-MCPD, 3-MCPD and glycidol algolia-search-ignore BS EN IEC 61162-450:2018 includes1 Scope This document specifies a procedure for the simultaneous determination of 2 MCPD esters (bound 2 MCPD), 3MCPD esters (bound 3MCPD) and glycidyl esters (bound glycidol) in a single assay, based on acid catalysed ester cleavage and derivatization of cleaved (free) analytes with phenylboronic acid (PBA) prior to GC MS analysis. This document is applicable to solid and liquid fats and oils. For all three analytes the limit of quantification (LOQ)
