## Abstract A method is proposed to substitute the classical saponification procedure for the determination of the sterols and other minor components in edible oils and fats. Saponification is replaced by transesterification, which liberates sterols and alcohols from esters under mild conditions, b

✦ Synopsis
Abstract
The previous on‐line LC‐GC 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 LC chromatogram up to the sterol esters. Silylation eliminated the problem that acylation may esterify some free alcohols with free fatty acids from the oil if the oil or fat is of high acidity. Widening of the LC fraction to include squalene and the tocopherols added information to that previously obtained.
