Factor for converting elemental phosphorus to acetone insolubles in crude soybean oil

  • Published:
Journal of the American Oil Chemists’ Society

Abstract

The official AOCS method CA 12-55 contains a factor of 30 in an equation for relating the phosphorus content of crude soybean oil to equivalent phosphatide. The historical derivation of this factor is discussed. The mean value was calculated to be 31.7 ±0.9 by correlation of phosphorus content with acetone insolubles in six lots of crude oil.
