What is ISO 14244 - Determination of soluble proteins in oilseed meals about ?
ISO 14244 is an international standard that discusses the determination of soluble proteins in potassium hydroxide solution in oilseeds to ensure it is safe for consumption.
ISO 14244 specifies a method for the determination of soluble proteins in potassium hydroxide solution in soya meals, rapeseed meals, and sunflower pellets, which are then assayed using the Kjeldahl method as specified in ISO 5983-1 and ISO 5983-2.
Under ISO 14244 the sample is dispersed in a solution of potassium hydroxide of approximately 12,5 pH, stirred, and centrifuged. Then, the nitrogen content of the clarified liquid is determined by the Kjeldahl method for crude protein and compared with the value of crude protein of the original sample.
