Division Note 7: F1

United Kingdom

Original text. Later amendments are not shown.

The components for quantification refer to the peaks with even carbon numbers amongst the C 40 - C 46 esters, according to the specimen chromatogram of the waxes in olive oil provided in the attached figure. For identification purposes, if the C 46 ester is split, it is recommended to analyse the wax fraction of an olive-pomace oil where the C 46 peak is distinguishable because it is clearly predominant.
