What is rancidity testing?
Rancidity is fundamentally a condition produced by the aerial oxidation of unsaturated fats present in foods as well as other products and it is marked by an unpleasant flavor or odor. Rancidity testing is exponentially used in the food, feed as well as pet food industries as an indication for product stability as well as quality. Product-appropriate testing is a vital component in determining the shelf-life of a product and the quality of raw materials.
Primarily fats are highly susceptible to degradation due to their chemical nature and their long carbon chains and variable magnitude of unsaturation leave them vulnerable to a wide range of breakdown pathways. With oxidative and hydrolytic rancidity, certain products start imparting an uncommon, foul odor, which is indicative of the deteriorating quality of food. To avoid this, rancidity testing is a mandate in certain products.
Our testing pathways.
We perform rancidity testing through the following ways:
- Peroxide Value Testing
- Free Fatty Acid Testing
- Acid Value Testing
These tests work to determine the amount of peroxide, lipids, reactive aldehydes and ketones, malondialdehyde, triglyceride structure, and the resistance of a sample to oxidation.
