Resumo

BIODIESELS AND FOODS.The analysis of fatty acid (FA) esters by gas chromatography and flame ionization detector (FID) normally uses the normalization method.However, if one FA is wrongly estimated, the results could be greatly affected.In this study, methodologies using internal standards and correction factors for the FID response are described.The results show that by using theoretical correction factors associated to the internal standardization, the quantitative analyses of the FAs are expressed in mass, increasing the accuracy and facilitating the interpretation and comparison of the results for foods and biodiesels.
