Frying oils showed an increase in Peroxide Value (PV) at the initial stages of the frying process followed by a decrease, and there was no correlation between PV and Total Polar Compounds (TPC) in the same set of frying oils. All the frying oils had PVs lower than 4.42 meq O2 kg -1 oil during the frying process and, consequently, none of them was above the limit of 10 meq O2 kg -1 oil for edibl...
