FAST QUANTITATIVE Fatty Acid Esterification These exciting new reagents offer significant advantages over other methods for the preparation of alkyl esters and other derivatives for gas phase analysis. SPEED — Most reactions are complete as s o o n as s o l u t i o n is a c h i e v e d . CONVENIENCE — One step procedure; ready-to-use reagents in Hypo-vials. CHOICE OF DERIVATIVE Methyl, Ethyl, Propyl, η-Butyl or t-Butyl; t-Butyl esters are formed as easily as methyl esters QUANTITATION - Quantitative yields are obtained — even when reagent and sample are injected without prior mixing. These significant new reagents may be ordered as listed in the next column. A
