Standard Methods for the analysis of Oils, Fats and Derivatives Sixth Edition, Part 1 (Sections I and II) describes the methods of analysis, which have been adopted and edited by the Commission on Oils, Fats and Derivatives. This book is composed of two sections. The first section deals with the presentation of standard methods and procedure for oleaginous seeds and fruits analysis of oil, fats, and their derivatives. The next section describes the determination procedure of physico-chemical properties of determined oil, fats, and derivatives. Such characteristics include density, refractive index, color, dilatation, acid, ester, iodine value, and moisture and volatile matter content This book will prove useful to analytical chemists and researchers in the allied fields.

Prepared for the IUPAC Commission on Oils, Fats and Derivatives, this definitive reference book contains more than eighty standardized methods for the analysis of oils, fats and their derivatives, which have been adopted by the Commission. Topics covered include the preparation of the samples for analysis, the determination of chemical and physical characteristics and the determination of quality and stability and the book is intended to be used as a reference by chemists and specialists in industry, trade and international organizations

Analyses of Fats, Oils, and Lipoproteins was originally published in December 1991. This volume, which includes only analytical material devoted to fats and oils is a shorter, paperback format. As in the complete volume, the material represents the "state of the art" and is intended to be used as a working reference and as an entry into the literature.
