The FCC (Food Chemicals Codex) method for Alkalinity (as NH₃) in Ethanol is a titration-based analytical procedure used to determine the basic impurities in ethanol by expressing the result as an equivalent amount of ammonia (NH₃). This test helps ensure ethanol meets purity specifications for food, beverage, and pharmaceutical use.
This test method is a colorimetric method used to determine ferrous iron (Fe²⁺) concentration in water and wastewater. The method utilizes 1,10-phenanthroline, which forms an orange-red complex with ferrous iron that can be measured spectrophotometrically.
This test method is used to quantify DP4+, DP3, maltose, glucose, fructose, lactic acid, acetic acid, glycerol, and ethanol in fermentation samples. This is a great way to determine fermentation efficiency and adjust processes accordingly.
This test method is a validated gravimetric method for determining crude fat content in meat and poultry products, including raw, cooked, and processed forms. This method uses ether extraction to measure total fat.
This test method is a gravimetric method used to determine crude fiber content in oilseed meals, animal feeds, and related agricultural products. Crude fiber consists of the indigestible portion of plant material, primarily cellulose and lignin, remaining after digestion with dilute acid and alkali.
This test method is a gravimetric method used to determine the crude fiber content in oilseed byproducts, such as soybean meal, cottonseed meal, canola meal, and other plant-based feed materials. Crude fiber represents the indigestible portion of the sample that remains after chemical digestion, primarily composed of cellulose and lignin, but excluding more soluble fiber… Continue reading Crude Fiber [Oilseed Byproducts]
This test method involves a combustion (Dumas) procedure for determining crude protein in meat and poultry products. This method measures total nitrogen by high-temperature combustion and calculates crude protein using a nitrogen-to-protein conversion factor.
This test method uses GC (gas chromatography) technology to characterize and quantify volatile polar compounds found within commercial oil processes with specific focus on ethanol esterified fatty acids. This test method quantifies ethyl palmitate, ethyl stearate, ethyl oleate, ethyl linoleate, as well as total fatty acid ethyl esters.
This test method is a gas chromatography (GC-FID)-based procedure for the quantitative determination of cis-, trans-, saturated, monounsaturated, and polyunsaturated fatty acids in vegetable oils and non-ruminant animal fats. This method enables detailed fatty acid profiling critical for nutritional labeling, product formulation, and quality control.
The FCC (Food Chemicals Codex) method for Acidity as Acetic Acid in Ethanol is a titrimetric procedure used to quantify the free acidity in ethanol by expressing it as an equivalent amount of acetic acid. This test helps assess the purity and quality of ethanol, especially in food, pharmaceutical, and beverage applications.
