Abstract Nine laboratories participated in a collaborative test to determine the iodine value (IV) of eight samples of fish oil (four with IV<150; four with IV>150) with either carbon tetrachloride (AOCS Official Method Cd 1–25) or cyclohexane/acetic acid (AOCS Recommended Practice Cd 1d‐92) as solvent and 1 h of reaction time. Laboratories received coded duplicate samples (hidden duplicates) and carried out duplicate determinations on each oil by each method (open duplicates). Replacing carbon tetrachloride with cyclohexane/acetic acid resulted in similar mean values for both low‐ and high‐IV oils and similar estimates of repeatability and reproducibility. The repeatability standard deviation ( s r ), based on hidden duplicates, with carbon tetrachloride and cyclohexane/acetic acid were 1.71 and 1.55, respectively. The corresponding reproducibility standard deviations were 1.81 and 1.98.
