| Abstract | A rapid, practical, and accurate FTIR method for the determination of FFA in edible oils was developed. Analogous to the AOCS titration procedure, the FTIR FFA determination is effected by an acid/base reaction but directly measures the product formed rather than utilizing an end point based on an electrode potential or color change. A suspension of a weak base, potassium phthalimide (K-phthal) in 1-propanol (1-PrOH), is used to convert the FFA present in oils to their carboxylate salt without causing oil saponification, and differential spectroscopy is used to circumvent matrix effects. Samples are first diluted with 1-PrOH, then split, with one-half treated with the K-phthal reagent and the other half with 1-PrOH (blank reagent), their spectra collected, and differential spectra obtained to ratio out the invariant spectral contributions from the oil sample. Quantification of the percentage of FFA in the oil, expressed as %oleic acid, based on measurement of the peak height of the ν (COO$^{−}$) absorption of the FFA salt formed, yielded a calibration with an SE of <0.020% FFA over the range of 0–4%. The method was validated by standard addition and the analysis of Smalley check samples, the results indicating that the analytical performance of the FTIR procedure is as good as or better than that of the standard titrimetric procedure. As structured, the FTIR procedure is a primary method, as calibration is not dependent on reference values provided by another method, and has performance criteria that could lead to its consideration as an instrumental AOCS procedure for FFA determination. The FTIR portion of the analysis is automatable, and a system capable of analyzing ∼60 samples/h was developed that could be of benefit to laboratories that carry out a large number of FFA analyses per day. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
