Replication Data for: A simple method for analysis of vitamin A palmitate in fortified cereal products using direct solvent extraction followed by reversed-phase HPLC with UV detection

The purpose of this dataset was to optimise a method for the analysis of vitamin A, in the form of retinyl palmitate, in fortified cereal products. Hereto, a reversed-phase HPLC procedure to separate retinyl palmitate (analyte) and retinyl acetate (internal standard) was optimised. In a next step , two extraction procedures, using either acetone/methanol or chloroform/methanol as extraction solvent, were optimised and validated. Three different matrices were investigated: a model system consisting of retinyl palmitate, oil and wheat bran, fortified bread and fortified cookies. All files contain experimental data related to the optimisation and validation of the developed method.
