Rapeseed oil high in unsaponifiable matter |
Description/Definition: ‘Rapeseed oil high in unsaponifiable matter’ is produced by vacuum distillation and it is different from refined rapeseed oil in the concentration of the unsaponifiable fraction (1 g in refined rapeseed oil and 9 g in ‘rapeseed oil high in unsaponifiable matter’). There is a minor reduction of triglycerides containing monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fatty acids. Purity: Unsaponifiable matter: > 7,0 g/100 g Tocopherols: > 0,8 g/100 g α-tocopherol (%): 30-50 % γ-tocopherol (%): 50-70 % δ-tocopherol (%): < 6,0 % Sterols, triterpenic alcohols, methylsterols: > 5,0 g/100 g Fatty acids in triglycerides: palmitic acid: 3-8 % stearic acid: 0,8-2,5 % oleic acid: 50-70 % linoleic acid: 15-28 % linolenic acid: 6-14 % erucic acid: < 2,0 % Acid value: ≤ 6,0 mg KOH/g Peroxide value: ≤ 10 mEq O2/kg Heavy metals: Iron (Fe): < 1 000 μg/kg Copper (Cu): < 100 μg/kg Impurities: Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) Benzo(a)pyrene: < 2 μg/kg Treatment with active carbon is required to ensure that polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) are not enriched in the production of ‘rapeseed oil high in unsaponifiable matter’. |
