Fatty acid profile of food or feed (with fat extraction)
Determination of fatty acid profile of crude lipid extract, fats, or oils with GC-MS or GC-FID. For other matrices, an additional fee for lipid extraction will be applied.
The measurement includes the determination of the following fatty acids:
Butyric acid (C4:0)
Caproic acid (C6:0)
Caprylic acid (C8:0)
Capric acid (C10:0)
Undecanoic acid (C11:0)
Lauric acid (C12:0)
Tridecanoic acid (C13:0)
Myristic acid (C14:0)
Myristoleic acid (C14:1, n−5)
Pentadecanoic acid (C15:0)
Pentadecenoic acid (C15:1, n−5)
Palmitic acid (C16:0)
Palmitoleic acid (C16:1, n−7)
Margaric acid (C17:0)
Heptadecenic acid (C17:1, n−7)
Stearic acid (C18:0)
Elaidic acid (C18:1, trans 9)
Oleic acid (C18:1, cis 9)
Linoelaidic acid (C18:2, trans 9,12)
Linoleic acid (C18:2 cis 9,12)
gamma-Linolenic acid (C18:3 cis 6,9,12)
