DIN Standards Committee Food and Agricultural Products

Overview

This standard specifies a method for the determination of benzo[a]pyrene in crude or refined edible oils and fats by reverse-phase high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) using fluorimetric detection in the range 0,1 µg/kg to 50 µg/kg. The old method from 1989 has been revised due to the results obtained in new ring tests which were conducted in 2006. This document contains, without any amendments, the International Standard ISO 15302:2007 which has been prepared by SC 11 "Animal and vegetable fats and oils" (secretariat: BSI, United Kingdom) of Technical Committee ISO/TC 34 "Food products" (secretariat: AFNOR, France). NA 057-05-05 AA "Gemeinschaftsausschuss für die Analytik von Fetten, Ölen, Fettprodukten, verwandten Stoffen und Rohstoffen" (GA Fett) ("Joint Committee for the analysis of fats, oil, fat products, related substances and raw materials") of the German Society for Fat Science (DGF) and of the Food and Agricultural Products Standards Committee (NAL) realize the collaboration of DIN at the European Committee for Standardization (CEN) by mirroring CEN/TC 307 (secretariat: AFNOR, France).
