Determination of Fatty Acids Ethyl Esters (FAEE) by Capillary
Column Gas Chromatography
The analysis of FAEE contents was made according to the methods in the
Turkish Food Codex (Anonymous, 2014). Analysis was performed using Gas
Chromatography (Agilent Technologies 6850, USA) using a
15mx0.32mmIDx0.25μm SPB-5 fused silica capillary column. 1 µL of
n-heptane solution with helium was used as carrier gas at an injection
volume of 0.5 mL/min. The column temperature was adjusted to 80°C,
increased at 20 to 140°C/min, then increased to 5 to 335°C/min and
waited for 20 min. The detector temperature was set to 350°C.
