ISO 4048:2008 specifies a method for the determination of the substances in leather which are soluble in dichloromethane. This method is applicable to all types of leather

ISO 4048:2008 includes two techniques for extraction of the fatty substances: 1) extraction using the Soxhlet apparatus; and 2) extraction using a pressurized extraction system.
