ISO 1871: Animal and vegetable fats and oils — Determination of nitrogen content — Kjeldahl method

ISO 1871 is a standard that outlines the use of the Kjeldahl method to determine the nitrogen content in animal and vegetable fats and oils. By indirectly measuring nitrogen, the method provides an estimate of the protein content in fats and oils. This standard is crucial in industries like food production, animal feed, and research, where understanding the nitrogen/protein content of fats and oils is important for quality control, nutritional labeling, and regulatory compliance.
