Introduction
[1]
The ISO 18363 series can be used for the determination of ester-bound MCPD and glycidol. This
introduction describes the methods specified in the different parts so that the analyst can decide which
methods are suitable for application. The detailed application of each method is contained within the scope
of each individual method.
[2]
ISO 18363-1 is a differential method equivalent to DGF standard C-VI 18 (10) and identical to AOCS Official
[3]
Method Cd 29c-13 . In brief, it is based on a fast alkaline catalysed release of 3-MCPD and glycidol from the
ester derivatives. Glycidol is subsequently converted into induced 3-MCPD. It consists of two parts. The first
part (A) allows the determination of the sum of ester-bound 3-MCPD and ester-bound glycidol, whereas the
second part (B) determines ester-bound 3-MCPD only. Both assays are based on the release of the target
analytes 3-MCPD and glycidol from the ester-bound form by an alkaline catalysed alcoholysis carried
out at room temperature. In part A, an acidified sodium chloride solution is used to stop the reaction and
subsequently convert the glycidol into induced 3-MCPD. Thus, 3-MCPD and glycidol become indistinguishable
in part A. In part B, the reaction stop is achieved by the addition of an acidified chloride-free salt solution
which also prevents the conversion of glycidol into induced MCPD. Consequently, part B allows the
determination of the genuine 3-MCPD content. Finally, the glycidol content of the sample is proportional to
the difference of both assays (A – B) and can be calculated when the transformation ratio from glycidol to
3-MCPD has been determined. ISO 18363-1 is applicable to the fast determination of ester-bound 3-MCPD
and glycidol in refined and non-refined vegetable oils and fats. ISO 18363-1 can also apply to animal fats and
used frying oils and fats, but a validation study must be undertaken before the analysis of these matrices.
Any free analytes within the sample would be included in the results, but the document does not allow the
distinction between free and bound analytes. However, as of publication of this document, research has not
shown any evidence of a free analyte content as high as the esterified analyte content in refined vegetable
oils and fats. In principle, ISO 18363-1 can also be modified in such a way that the determination of 2-MCPD
is feasible, but again, a validation study must be undertaken before the analysis of this analyte.
[4]
ISO 18363-2 represents AOCS Official Method Cd 29b-13 . In brief, it is based on a slow alkaline release of
MCPD and glycidol from the ester derivatives. Glycidol is subsequently converted into 3-MBPD. ISO 18363-2
consists of two sample preparations that differ in the use of internal standards. Both preparations are used
for the determination of ester-bound 2-MCPD and 3-MCPD. In part A, a preliminary result for ester-bound

Introduction
[1]
La série ISO 18363 peut être utilisée pour la détermination des esters de MCPD et de glycidol. La présente
introduction décrit les méthodes spécifiées dans les différentes parties afin de permettre à l’analyste de
décider des méthodes appropriées en fonction de son application. L’application détaillée de chaque méthode
figure dans le domaine d’application de chaque méthode concernée.
[2]
L’ISO 18363-1 est une méthode différentielle équivalente à la norme C-VI 18 (10) de la DGF et identique
[3]
à la méthode officielle Cd 29c-13 de l’AOCS. En résumé, elle repose sur la libération rapide par catalyse
alcaline de 3-MCPD et de glycidol à partir de leurs dérivés esters. Le glycidol est par la suite converti en
3-MCPD. Elle comprend deux parties. La première partie (A) permet de déterminer la somme des esters de
3-MCPD et des esters de glycidol, tandis que la seconde partie (B) ne détermine que les esters de 3-MCPD.
Les deux analyses reposent sur la libération des analytes cibles, le 3-MCPD et le glycidol, à partir des esters
par alcoolyse en présence d’un catalyseur alcalin à température ambiante. Dans la partie A, une solution
acidifiée de chlorure de sodium est utilisée pour interrompre la réaction qui induit par la suite la conversion
du glycidol en 3-MCPD. Il n’est par conséquent plus possible de faire la distinction entre le 3-MCPD et le
glycidol dans la partie A. Dans la partie B, la réaction est interrompue par ajout d’une solution saline
acidifiée exempte de chlorure qui évite aussi la conversion du glycidol en MCPD. La partie B permet ainsi de
déterminer la véritable teneur en 3-MCPD. Enfin, la teneur en glycidol de l’échantillon est proportionnelle
à la différence entre les deux analyses (A – B) et peut être calculée lorsque le coefficient de transformation
du glycidol en 3-MCPD a été déterminé. L’ISO 18363-1 est applicable à la détermination rapide des esters
de 3-MCPD et de glycidol dans les corps gras d’origine végétale raffinés et non raffinés. L’ISO 18363-1 peut
également s’appliquer aux graisses animales et aux huiles de friture usagées, mais une étude de validation
doit être menée avant de procéder à l’analyse de ces matrices. Les analytes libres éventuellement contenus
dans l’échantillon sont habituellement inclus dans les résultats, mais le document ne permet pas de faire
la distinction entre les analytes libres et les analytes liés

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through
ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.

Introduction
The ISO 18363 series is a family of International Standards which can be used for the determination of ester-
bound MCPD and glycidol. This introduction describes the methods specified in the four documents currently
published or proposeddifferent parts so that the analyst can decide which methods are suitable for
application. The detailed application of each method is contained within the scope of each individual method.
[11]
ISO 18363-1 is a differential method equivalent to the DGF standard C-VI 18 (10) and identical to AOCS
[10]
Official Method Cd 29c-13 . In brief, it is based on a fast alkaline catalysed release of 3-MCPD and glycidol
from the ester derivatives. Glycidol is subsequently converted into induced 3-MCPD. It consists of two parts.
The first part (A) allows the determination of the sum of ester-bound 3-MCPD and ester-bound glycidol,
whereas the second part (B) determines ester-bound 3-MCPD only. Both assays are based on the release of
the target analytes 3-MCPD and glycidol from the ester-bound form by an alkaline catalysed alcoholysis
carried out at room temperature. In part A, an acidified sodium chloride solution is used to stop the reaction
and subsequently convert the glycidol into induced 3-MCPD. Thus, 3-MCPD and glycidol become
indistinguishable in part A. In part B, the reaction stop is achieved by the addition of an acidified chloride-free
salt solution which also prevents the conversion of glycidol into induced MCPD. Consequently, part B allows
the determination of the genuine 3-MCPD content. Finally, the glycidol content of the sample is proportional
to the difference of both assays (A – B) and can be calculated when the transformation ratio from glycidol to
3-MCPD has been determined. ISO 18363-1 is applicable to the fast determination of ester-bound 3-MCPD and
glycidol in refined and non-refined vegetable oils and fats. ISO 18363-1 can also apply to animal fats and used
frying oils and fats, but a validation study must be undertaken before the analysis of these matrices. Any free
analytes within the sample would be included in the results, but the document does not allow the distinction
between free and bound analytes. However, as of publication of this document, research has not shown any
evidence of a free analyte content as high as the esterified analyte content in refined vegetable oils and fats. In
principle, ISO 18363-1 can also be modified in such a way that the determination of 2-MCPD is feasible, but
again, a validation study must be undertaken before the analysis of this analyte.

ISO 18363-2 represents the AOCS Official Method Cd 29b-13 . In brief, it is based on a slow alkaline release
of MCPD and glycidol from the ester derivatives. Glycidol is subsequently converted into 3-MBPD. ISO 18363-
2 consists of two sample preparations that differ in the use of internal standards. Both preparations are used
for the determination of ester-bound 2-MCPD and 3-MCPD. In part A, a preliminary result for ester-bound
glycidol is determined. Because the 3-MCPD present in the sample is converted to some minor extent into
induced glycidol by the sample preparation, part B serves to quantify this amount of induced glycidol that is
subsequently subtracted from the preliminary glycidol result of part A. By the use of isotopically labelled free
MCPD isomers in assay A and isotopi
