Soxhlet Extraction The standard method for the determination of free fat in foodstuffs is the Soxhlet extraction. behr equipment for the extraction fulfils the most varied requirements of daily laboratory use. • Heating block units with especially exact temperature control for simultaneously processing up to 6 samples. • No rotary evaporator is required. • Extraction systems for four or six samples with linear configuration of individual extrators. • Extractor sizes from 30 to 250 ml. • Kompakt units for single sample processing. • Extractors provided with spigots for draining solvent obviate need to distill solvent before reuse. • Extractors with a specially developed siphon tube guarantee uniformity of extraction in all sample positions. Use of the hydrolysis glassware kit (for 1, 4 or 6 sample units) enables acid digestion to be performed prior to extraction in accordance with the Weibull and Stoldt method for determination of total fat content.
