This International Standard specifies two methods for the determination, by drying, of the moisture and volatile matter content of animal or vegetable fats and oils: - method A, using a sand bath or hotplate; - method B, using a drying oven. Method A is applicable to all fats and oils. Method B is applicable only to non-drying fats and oils with an acid value less than 4. Under no circumstances are lauric oils be analysed by this method. Milk and milk products (or fat obtained from milk and milk products) are excluded from the Scope of this International Standard. The International Standard has been prepared by ISO/TC 34/SC 11 "Animal and vegetable fats and oils" (secretariat: BSI, United Kingdom) of Technical Committee ISO/TC 34 "Food Products", (secretariat: AFNOR, France).
