25、constitutes a minor revision. The scope has been revised to state that the document is not applicable to milk and milk fat products.ISO 12966 consists of the following part, under the general title Animal and vegetable fats and oils Gas chromatography of fatty acid methyl esters: Part 1: Guidelines

27、ATIONAL STANDARD ISO 12966-3:2016(E)Animal and vegetable fats and oils Gas chromatography of fatty acid methyl esters Part 3: Preparation of methyl esters using trimethylsulfonium hydroxide (TMSH)1 ScopeThis part of ISO 12966 specifies a rapid base-catalysed transesterification method for fats and o
28、ils with trimethylsulfonium hydroxide (TMSH) to prepare fatty acid methyl esters. The method is exclusively applicable to the preparation of methyl esters of fats and oils for gas liquid chromatographic (GLC) analysis. It is applicable to all fats and oils, but excluding those coming from milk and m
29、ilk products. Isomerization of unsaturated fatty acids only occurs to a minor extent and isomerized fatty acids are only present at the determination limit. As isomerization takes place, the procedure is not recommended for conjugated linoleic acid (CLA).Only about 70 % to 80 % of the free fatty aci
30、ds are esterified. In the case of conjugated cyclopropyl and cyclopropenyl fatty acids, side reactions may occur, but these do not interfere with the determination of the fatty acids.NOTE This part of ISO 12966 is based upon German Standard Method C-VI 11e (98) (see Reference 8).2 Normative referenc
31、esThe following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and indispensable for its application. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies.ISO 661, A
32、nimal and vegetable fats and oils Preparation of test sample3 PrincipleThe sample is dissolved in tert-butyl methyl ether (TBME) and mixed with a methanolic solution of trimethylsulfonium hydroxide. Glycerides are base-catalysed transesterified and fatty acid methyl esters are formed (see References
33、 4 to 8). Free fatty acids are converted to salts which are pyrolysed to methyl esters and dimethylsulfide in the injector. Excess reagent is also pyrolysed into methanol and dimethylsulfide. To obtain a complete pyrolytic reaction, a hot injector (split injection) of at least 250 C is necessary.For
34、 the determination of short-chain fatty acids (C4to C8), valeric acid methyl ester is used as an internal standard. Lipids containing hydroxy groups are partially converted to the corresponding O-methyl ether derivatives which may interfere with fatty acid methyl esters in the GLC separation (Refere
35、nce 9). In the early part of the chromatogram (region of C4), peaks may occur, which are from the reagent. These peaks are not taken into account.4 ReagentsWARNING Attention is drawn to the regulations which specify the handling of hazardous substances. Technical, organizational, and personal safety
36、 measures shall be followed.

37、ion, amount of substance concentration c(Me3SOH) = 0,2 mol/l.The content of the solution can be determined by acidimetry: dilute 5,0 ml of the solution with 10 ml of methanol, add two drops of phenolphthalein and titrate against 0,1 mol/l HCl. The concentration should be at least 0,15 mol/l.NOTE The
38、 solution remains stable for at least two months when stored at 4 C in small quantities in closed tubes.5 ApparatusUsual laboratory equipment, and in particular:5.1 Test tubes, of capacity 2 ml (autosampler vials).5.2 Graduated pipettes, of capacities 250 l, 500 l, and 1 000 l, ISO 8351class A.6 Sam
39、plingA representative sample should have been sent to the laboratory. It should not have been damaged or changed during transport or storage.Sampling is not part of the method specified in this part of ISO 12966. A recommended sampling method is given in ISO 55553.7 Preparation of the test sampleThe
40、 test sample shall be liquid, dry and clear. Proceed in accordance with ISO 661, but heat the sample to just above the melting point.Solid samples are carefully melted at a temperature of maximum 10 C above their melting point and mixed. Avoid overheating.Samples containing water are dissolved in pe
41、troleum ether and dried for 30 min by addition of anhydrous sodium sulfate. The drying agent is removed by filtration through a fluted filter paper and the residue is carefully washed with petroleum ether. The solvent is subsequently removed with the aid of a rotary evaporator.8 Procedure8.1 Weigh,
42、into a test tube (5.1), (10 2) mg of the test sample.8.2 Pipette (5.2) 500 l of TBME (4.1) into the test tube and dissolve the sample, warming gently if necessary.NOTE For the determination of short-chain fatty acids (C4to C8), valeric acid methyl ester is used as an internal standard. The internal
43、standard solution is used to dissolve the sample.2 ISO 2016 All rights reservedBS EN ISO 12966-3:2016ISO 12966-3:2016(E)8.3 Pipette (5.2) 250 l of TMSH solution (4.2) into the test tube and shake vigorously for about 30 s. After this, the solution is ready for injection into the gas chromatograph. A
44、s the methyl esters are formed during injection, an injector temperature of at least 250 C is required.If necessary, use a mixture of TBME and methanol (9 volumes + 1 volume) to dilute the solution.IMPORTANT Free fatty acids react with TMSH to form the corresponding salts, which are pyrolysed to met
45、hyl esters and dimethylsulfide in the injector. Therefore, an injector temperature of 250 C is necessary. To prevent blocking, the capillary of the split vent shall have an appropriate internal diameter (1 mm). It should be cleaned by regular heating or flushing with solvent. Moreover, the split ven
46、t valve shall be protected with an activated charcoal trap.9 Test reportThe test report shall include the following information:a) result of the determination;b) the method used, together with a reference to this part of ISO 12966, i.e. ISO 12966-3;c) all information necessary for the complete ident
47、ification of the sample;d) all operating details not specified in this part of ISO 12966, or regarded as optional, together with details of any incident that may have influenced the result(s).
