Method LAL-METH-06 · In house, calculated · Accreditation: CalculatedWhat it measures
TOTOX (Total Oxidation) is run to LAL-METH-06 (In house, calculated) on oils, fats. It sits in the oxidation family, and is calculated from accredited determinations; the calculated value is not itself on our accredited scope, which we mark rather than leaving implied.
Most clients order it alongside the other tests in its family, which is why the panels exist — they bundle the tests that genuinely answer one question together, rather than making you assemble them yourself.

How to prepare and ship
Amber glass with minimal headspace, sealed. Keep oxidation-sensitive samples cold and out of light. Send at least 5 g. Running several tests on one sample can raise the quantity we need. If a combination needs more than the figure shown, we tell you when we book the sample in rather than after it arrives. Full guidance is on the sample preparation page.
