Notes:
Conditions are set out for the satisfactory measurement of nitrogen contents of edible, refined, hydrogenated fats at levels of 100 μg N/g fat, by the wet oxidation of the fat with acid-hydrogen peroxide and subsequent Kjeldahl micro-distillation.The Nessler method has been evaluated and found to be unsatisfactory when used in conjunction with acid-hydrogen peroxide digestion. Examples indicatting the range of nitrogen contents, ca. 100–200 μg N/g fat, which can be expected in edible, refined, hydrogenated fats, from different sources are reported.
