Abstract
The dimethyl sulfoxide procedure was extended to eleven edible oils and fish oils. After cleanup, the detection system of choice may be used. If extracts of samples larger than 20 g are injected into the microcoulometric detection system, halogenated background material will make evaluation difficult. In fish oils, when paper chromatography is used for evaluation, an Rf indicating aldrin must be further investigated, since it is possible that a spot at this Rf might be background material.
