Abstract: | A computer-assisted method has been developed for estimation of isolatedtrans unsaturation using the peak area of thetrans absorbance band at 966 cm-1from FTIR spectra of fatty acid methyl esters. Peak areas were used to determine thetrans content of weighed standards containing from 0 to 100% methyl elaidate and of hydrogenated soybean oil samples containing
up to 36%trans unsaturation. These data for percenttrans by FTIR were compared to corresponding data obtained by capillary gas chromatography and the AOCS Official Method 14-61.
Determination of isolatedtrans composition in oils using peak areas gave values with the smallest standard deviation for weighed standards and values within
4% of those obtained by capillary gas chromatography and the AOCS Official Method for hydrogenated samples.
Presented at the AOCS meeting in Phoenix, AZ in May 1988.
