| Test Item | Common Testing Methods | Method Overview |
|---|---|---|
| Appearance | Visual Inspection | Observe the sample's color, transparency, and presence of suspended particles or precipitates; it should typically be a colorless to pale yellow transparent liquid. |
| Content Determination | Gas Chromatography (GC) | Separation using a capillary column with FID detection; quantification by area normalization or external standard method to calculate main component content (≥98%). |
| Water Content | Karl Fischer Titration | Utilizes the reaction of iodine and sulfur dioxide in a pyridine/methanol system with water; determination via potentiometric or volumetric titration to measure trace moisture content. |
| Acid Value | Acid-Base Titration | Titration with standardized potassium hydroxide in ethanol solution, using phenolphthalein as indicator; results expressed in mg KOH/g. |
| Refractive Index | Abbe Refractometer Method | Measure refractive index at 20°C to assist in assessing purity and consistency (typical range: 1.46–1.48). |
| Density | Densitometer or Pycnometer Method | Measure sample density at 20°C to aid in identification and quality assessment (typical range: 1.02–1.05 g/cm³). |
| Boiling Point / Distillation Range | Distillation Method | Determine boiling point range via atmospheric distillation to verify volatility characteristics (literature boiling point: approximately 210–215°C). |
| Odor | Olfactory Evaluation (Sensory Analysis) | Professional perfumers assess odor characteristics in a fume hood to confirm characteristic roasted onion, meat-like aroma, with no off-odors. |
| Impurity Analysis | GC-MS (Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry) | Separate and identify trace impurities (e.g., unreacted starting materials, by-products, degradation products) to ensure compliance with food/flavor safety standards. |
| Heavy Metals | Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (AAS) or ICP-MS | Detect harmful heavy metal residues such as lead, arsenic, mercury, and cadmium to ensure compliance with food safety regulations (e.g., ≤10 ppm). |
| Arsenic Salts | Gutzeit Method or Atomic Fluorescence Spectroscopy | Specific detection of arsenic content for safety control of food additive-grade products. |
| Microbial Limits | Plate Count Method (Aerobic Count, Mold/Yeast) | If used in food or pharmaceutical applications, test for microbial contamination according to pharmacopoeial or food safety standards. |
