Reagecon Fatty Acid Methyl Ester (FAME) 8 Compound Mix Method A Reference Solution in n-Heptane according to European Pharmacopoeia (EP) Chapter 2.4.22, Table 3

This Reagecon Fatty Acid Methyl Ester (FAME) 8 Compound Mix is a ready to use product that is used either as a calibrant or analytical control solution for a variety of gas and liquid chromatography methods that include GC; GC-MS; HPLC and LC-MS. This product can also be used to validate appropriate test methods or qualify an instrument in a regulated industry. This product is prepared gravimetrically on a weight/volume basis to a specification of 2.5%. Reagecon holds ISO 17025 accreditation (A2LA Ref: 6739.02) for calibration of laboratory balances. The identity of each standard is verified using a high performance calibrated Gas Chromatograph Mass Spectrometer (GC-MS Instrument). The mass spectrum of each of the analytes is confirmed by comparison with the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) mass spectral library. The esterification of fatty acids is an important tool for both characterising fats and oils and for determining the total fat content in foods and foodstuffs. It is also an important measurement for the assessing of quality and purity of biofuels.
