Description

This is a laboratory-based investigation of preservative chemicals commonly found in household products - parabens. Students carry out extractions of parabens froma product of choice and analyse the extracts using either GC or HPLC. Suggested methods are given for each analytical method. Composition data are compared against EU legislation for the use of parabens

Description

This is a laboratory-based investigation of the Vitamin C content of foodstuffs after different cooking treatments. As described, the experiment illustrates the influence of cooking methods on the apparent Vitamin C content of green peppers. Analysis of Vitamin C is achieved by wet chemical methods or by HPLC
