## Abstract Many foods are contaminated with mineral oil at concentrations in the order of or above 10βmg/kg. Often, these mineral oils are of technical grade and contain around 20β30% aromatic hydrocarbons, as previously shown by an onβline HPLCβGCβflame ionization detection method for determining

β¦ Synopsis
Aromatics of a Cl5-CW mineral oil fraction, the "batching oil" used for producing jute fabrics, were analyzed for estimating the toxicity of oil transferred from jute bags to foods. Grouptype pre-separation according to ring systems occurred on a LC NH2 column with pentane and small additions of methanol as eluent. LC fractions were characterized by LC-GC-MS and quantitated by LC-GC-FID. The oil contained 23 YO aromatics and 1 YO "polars"; some 99.5 YO of the aromatics were alkylated.

## Abstract The previous onβline LCβGC method for the direct analysis of the minor components in oils and fats (without cleavage of esters) was modified: The free alcohols/sterols were silylated instead of acylated, and the LC fraction transferred to GC is widened to range from the beginning of the
## Abstract The modified LCβGC transfer technique with concurrent eluent evaporation reduces losses of volatile components. The LC fraction is transferred by the LC pump. Evaporation occurs in a heated capillary into which a piece of wire is introduced. Vapors are discharged by overflow. This enabl
