Want to find out more about the mono- and diglyceride emulsifiers in your foodstuffs? 

Mylnefield Lipid Analysis can quantify the total monoglyceride and diglyceride for you, along with the other lipid classes present (including phospholipids/lecithin). We can provide a breakdown of the fatty acids present in each class and even separate and quantify the 1-and 2-monoglycerides and the 1,3- and 1,2-diglycerides, if you need finer detail.

We are highly experienced in analysing lipids within all kinds of food, from meat, fish and eggs to dairy produce and confectionery. Enquiries from industry or academia are equally welcome.
