Abstract The adaptation of a wide range of isolation methods to the separation of epoxy components from seed oils has been accomplished. The application of these methods to samples ranging from a few micrograms to 50 g. or more has been considered, and recommendations as to the most suitable methods for specific sample sizes are made. Most of the procedures described are equally suitable for the isolation of hydroxy and other oxy‐acids and esters. Some of them, in conjunction with gas‐liquid chromatography, provide methods for total analysis of oils containing oxy‐acids, which are more accurate and convenient than current analytical methods.
