[Determination of the vitamin E in fish and fish products]

To measure the tocopherols content in fish and fishery products conditions of analysis permitting the utilization of the Emmiry-Engel method were selected. Subsequent to a comparative investigation, a system of solvents was sorted out with which in column chromatography using aluminium oxide the most complete separation of tocopherols from compounds hindering colourimetric determination could be achieved. The procedures used in determinations and data on the tocopherols content in 27 species of fish, fishery products and others are given.
