Determination of lipid content and fatty acid representation in barley caryopses and malt.

Abstract

The modern method of extraction on the fluidized bed was optimized for the determination of lipids in barley caryopses and malt. Representation of fatty acids in barley caryopsis and malt was determined from extracted lipids. The represented fatty acids were determined as methyl esters prepared with transesterification reaction. The esters formed were separated using the method of gas chromatography with flame ionization detection on the capillary column SLB-IL 100.The modern method of extraction on the fluidized bed was optimized for the determination of lipids in barley caryopses and malt.
