Application

Methyl stearate has been used as a reference standardin gas chromatography (GC) to evaluate the absolute amount of methyl stearate among the fatty acid methyl esters of biodieselto evaluate the intramuscular fatty acid profile of fresh lamb meat in GCto qualitatively analyse the transesterification reaction products by thin layer chromatography
