| Abstract: | Further Development of Codex Alimentarius Standards for Oils and Fats The present status of Codex Alimentarius Standards for oils and fats is reviewed. Further development of these standards is reported, based on discussions at the 8th meeting of the codex committee for oils and fats in London. The discussions concerned standards for low-erucic rapeseed oil, low-fat spreads, coconut-, palm-, palm kernel-, babassu-, grape seed- and marine oils as well as issues involving the range of application, fatty acid composition of individual oils and fats and use of solvents in the recovery and processing of fats. |
