Questions and Answers

What is the advantage of using SFE for determining fat content?

  • Improved detection of pesticide residues in food products
  • Higher fat recoveries compared to conventional methods using organic solvents (correct)
  • Faster extraction time compared to conventional methods
  • Reduced need for re-extracting the sample multiple times

    • How does the on-line piezoelectric detector contribute to SFE for fat determination?

  • Improves the extraction efficiency of pesticides from food products
  • Reduces the extraction time required for fat determination
  • Enables rapid determination of the point when the steady state mass has been reached without re-extracting the sample multiple times (correct)
  • Allows more accurate determination of the final sample weight after all of the fat has been extracted (total fat)

    • What are some examples of products that are analyzed for pesticide residues using SFE?

  • Fruits and vegetables (correct)
  • Processed and canned foods
  • Dairy and poultry products
  • Grains and cereals
