Test Description

For Total Fat, state the use of acid hydrolysis. Results for saturated fatty acids, should be reported in g/100g of sample, not g/100g of fat. Saturates = Fatty acids without double bonds. Total sugars = that measured by a defined titration method (e.g. Layne-Eynon, Luff-Schoorl, Munson Walker) or, if measured by HPLC, the sum of fructose + glucose + sucrose + lactose + galactose + maltose (NB not all sugars may be present). Salt should be reported as sodium chloride (NaCl).
