Hydrolysis Procedure
Total Fat Calculation
The hydrolysis procedure is done prior to fat extraction. When both hydrolysis and fat extraction are done, the Total
Fat contained within a food or feed sample can be calculated using the following formula:
% Total Fat = 100 x (W
2
– (W
3
+ (C
1
– C
2
)))
W
1
Where: W
1
= Original weight of sample
W
2
= Weight of dried sample, filter bag, and Diatomaceous Earth (DE) after hydrolysis
W
3
= Weight of dry extracted sample, filter bag, and DE
(determined after using the ANKOM
XT15
or ANKOM
XT10
instruments)
C
1
= Blank filter bag dry weight after hydrolysis
C
2
= Blank filter bag weight after extraction
