9.3 Hydrolysed fat or oil (Feed Grade) is obtained in the fat processing procedures commonly used in edible fat processing or soap making. It consists predominantly of fatty acids and must contain, and be guaranteed for, not less than 850 g/kg total fatty acids, not more than 60 g/kg unsaponifiable matter, and not more than 10 g/kg insoluble impurities. Maximum moisture must also be guaranteed. The source must be stated in the product name; i.e., "hydrolysed animal fat", "hydrolysed vegetable fat", or "hydrolysed animal and vegetable fat".
9.4 Acid oil/fat product (Feed Grade) is any fat product which does not meet the definitions for animal fat, vegetable fat or oil, hydrolysed fat or fat ester. It must be sold on its individual specifications which will include the minimum percentage of total fatty acids, the maximum percentage of unsaponifiable matter, the maximum percentage of insoluble impurities, the maximum percentage of free fatty acids, moisture and melting point. The above listed specifications must be guaranteed on the label.
9.5 Corn endosperm oil is obtained by the extraction of oil from corn gluten. It consists predominantly of free fatty acids and glycerides, and must contain not less than 850 g/kg total fatty acids, not more than 140 g/kg unsaponifiable matter, and not more than 10 g/kg insoluble matter.
9.6 Calcium salts or long-chain fatty acids are the reaction products between calcium and long-chain fatty acids of vegetable and/or animal origin. They shall contain a maximum of 200 g/kg lipid not bound in the calcium salt form and the percentage total fat shall be indicated. The unsaponifiable matter (exclusive of calcium salts) shall not exceed 40 g/kg and moisture shall not exceed 50 g/kg. Prior to conducting an assay for total fats, hydrolysis of the calcium salts should be performed to liberate the lipid fraction.
Any edible oil or fat that has been used at least once in the frying of food and is still fit for human consumption. They shall contain below 16 % polymerised triglycerides and/or 25 % polar compounds with no mineral oil present. Total fatty acid content, free fatty acid content, colour, moisture content, impurities, unsaponifiables, iodine values, etc. can be specified by manufacturer according to need.
Note: 1. With respect to Cottonseed oil the maximum gossypol level must be declared.
Note: 2. An approved anti-oxidant must be added to animal fats at an inclusion rate of 500 – 1 000 mg/kg . The following warning must be displayed on the label: This product has a limited shelf-life and must not be stored for long periods
