Fatty acid analysis
Krišs Spalviņš, Taras Mika

Description of the Technology

 The technology (gas chromatography) provides an opportunity to analyze the composition of fatty acids that form lipids (fats, oils, waxes, etc.) in various types of biological samples.



Applications

It is possible to perform the analysis on various types of biological samples, e.g. food products, animal feed, food and feed raw materials, agricultural and industrial by-products and residues, etc.



Advantages

Analyzes are characterized by high accuracy, repeatability and sensitivity. The analysis can be performed with a small amount of sample (~1g of pure lipid).
