Abstract:
A sample for NMR measurement comprising:an organic portion containing at least some fats and oils; a pad that is heat resistant, lipophilic and substantially transparent to microwave radiation and is free of hydrogen atoms that would interfere with or mask the NMR response of the protons in the fats and oils in the sample; a pliable sheet material that is free of hydrogen atoms that would interfere with or mask the NMR response of the protons in the fats and oils in the sample, and that is substantially nonporous to oils, melted fats, and other liquids, and strong enough to withstand being wrapped and folded into a size that fits within, the sample field of an NMR analyzer; and said sheet material being wrapped around said organic portion and said pad.
