✦ Synopsis

The level of oxidized compounds can be taken as an indicator of the sanitary quality of frying fats. The determination of oxidized fatty acids (insoluble in petroleum ether) is time consuming and not very accurate. In this paper a new method is reported, based on thin-layer chromatographic separation of oxidized triglycerides and colorimetry after reaction with vanillin. The method is accurate (C.V. = k 3.82 x), economic, not time consuming and requires only a very small amount of fat.

Saccharin is extracted from the acidified liquid food with chloroform. This solvent is evaporated ; the residue is dissolved in ethyl acetate and applied on a silica gel GF,,, plate. After chromatographic separation, the saccharin band is scraped off and extracted with 1 % sodium carbonate solution.
