This dataset describes the analysis of aflatoxins, macroelement and microelement concentration, oxidative stability and fatty acid profile of infant formula milk powder. Gas chromatography (CG) was used to identity 14 fatty acid methyl esters in in five samples of oils. The Racimat 893 method (induction times), Thermogravimetry (TG), Derivative Thermogravimetry (DTG) and Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) were used to estimate the oxidative stability of oils. In addition, UV-VIS spectroscopic techniques were employed to obtain graphs of the absorption of each oil. The data presented can be useful in identifying compounds available in oils used to promote wound healing and understand the degradation mechanism.
