Development of methods and investigations on the formation of 3-monochloropropane-1,2-diol fatty acid esters (3-MCPD-FE) and glycidyl esters in fatty foods
Project
Project code: MRI-GE-08-15-02
Contract period: 01.01.2015

Purpose of research: Basic research
Keywords: analysis, extraction methods for fatty foods
Aim of the research is the development of methods for the analysis of 3-MCPD-FE and Glycidylesters in fatty foods. In a first step it is necessary to find suitable extraction methods for the complete extraction of the fat out of the fatty food with the 3-MCPD-FE and glycidylesters solved in the fat. Then the known methods for the determination of 3-MCPD-FE and glycidylesters in vegetable oils have to be tested for their applicability by samples, which are charged with matrix compounds.
There are different methods to extract fat from fatty foods. A screening of different fatty foods should clarify, which extraction methods are suitable for a certain type of fatty foods. The 3-MCPD-FE and glycidylesters are solved in the fat. Ideally their extraction should be complete. Ideally, only one extraction method is suitable for all types of fatty foods. For the analysis of 3-MCPD-FE and glycidylesters in vegetable oils different methods have been developed. It is to clear, if these methods are suitable for the different extracts of the diverse fatty foods. All the extracts are charged with different matrix compounds, which can have some influence on the results of the samples.
