Comprehensive 2D GC with Dual Mass Spectrometry / Flame Ionization Detection for the Analysis of the Unsaponifiable Fraction of Vegetable Oils
A comprehensive two-dimensional GC (GCxGC) method, with dual FID/MS detection was developed for the qualitative and quantitative analysis of the entire unsaponifiable fraction of vegetable oils. The analysis of the fatty acid (FA) composition of a vegetable oil can provide valuable information on both its quality and genuineness. However, because many oils have a similar FA profile, the investigation of a minor but highly specific group of compounds, namely the unsaponifiable fraction, is helpful for the assessment of a possible adulteration.
