pH: The pH value indicates the acidity or alkalinity of the oil. It should fall within a specified range.

Acid Value: This parameter measures the free fatty acids in the oil.

Saponification Value: It reflects the average molecular weight of the fatty acids in the oil.

Refractive Index: The refractive index helps determine the purity and composition of the oil.

Specific Gravity: This property relates to the density of the oil.

Skin Irritation Test: Hair oils are tested for skin irritation on the forearm. This ensures that the product is safe for use.

How do you Analyse vitamin content in food?

Analyzing the vitamin content in food involves several laboratory techniques. Here's an overview of the common methods used High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC):  HPLC is a widely used technique for analyzing vitamins, particularly water-soluble vitamins like vitamin C (ascorbic acid), B vitamins (thiamine, riboflavin, niacin, etc.), and fat-soluble vitamins like vitamins A, D, E, and K. This method separates and quantifies individual vitamins based on their chemical properties.
