Analyzing FAME in Soybean Oil Using a Zebron ZB-FAME

19 Sept 2018

Soybean oil must be tested to ensure the fatty acid composition fully complies with regulatory standards, before consumption. This application note describes the extraction and analysis of FAMEs, fatty acid methyl esters, in less than 25 minutes using the Phenomenex ZebronTM ZB-FAME column.

Zebron™ PLUS GC Inlet Liners

Phenomenex Inc

Introducing ZebronTM PLUS GC Inlet Liners Zebron PLUS Liners  Optimized for trace and active compound analysis, Zebron PLUS GC liners undergo a unique chemical deactivation treatment resulting in a remarkably inert GC inlet liner. Zebron Essential Liners Zebron Essential liners undergo a vapor deposited deactivation process resulting in a thin film liner that is ideal for routine analysis. Why Use Pre-Packed Liners? Though the upfront cost of self-packing your liner may seem attractive, the time and headaches caused by resulting tailing or irreproducible peaks can be sizeable! Self-packed wool fibers commonly break during installation and any existing deactivation on the liner can also be scratched or damaged. Pre-packed Zebron PLUS liners undergo the deactivation process with the quartz wool already in place, which ensures that any active sites that form during packing are not exposed. Zebron PLUS liners Advantage Remarkably Inert GC inlet liners for superior sample protection Easy to install, touchless packaging allows you to protect yourself from cuts or breakage Eliminates contamination that may occur during the installation process.
