AOCS and AOAC methods for determining the trans fatty acid composition of foods by gas chromatography require the use of a highly polar cyanosilicone capillary column to provide the best peak resolution attainable of the numerous geometric (cis & trans)
This article explores the analysis of fats in food and beverage products. From derivatization of fatty acids to FAMEs, to analysis of FAME isomers, and more we are your one-stop shop for all of your food and beverage analysis needs.
Fast GC analysis is typically performed using short, 0.10 mm I.D. capillary columns with H2 carrier gas and rapid temperature programming rates. FAMEs can be analyzed with a variety of 0.10 mm I.D. columns, depending upon the information required.

The SP-2560/SLB-IL111 column pairing allows for comprehensive and accurate (qualitative and quantitative) determinations of saturated and trans fatty acids.
Determination of the fatty acid composition of nuts using established methods for GC analysis on capillary columns of 3 selectivities: Omegawax, SP-2560, and ionic liquid based SLB-IL111.
Glycerin determination by methods D6584 and/or EN 14105 requires the use of two internal standards and multi-component calibration solutions, each containing glycerin, monoolein, diolein, and triolein, in varying concentrations.
Compared to existing ‘wax’ columns, the SLB-IL60 column offers unique selectivity, some cis/trans resolution, and faster elution for the analysis of omega 3 and omega 6 fatty acid methyl esters.
