Abstract
AbstractNine 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 (sr), 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.
