The coconut oil, coconut water and palm kernel oil was administered orally at a dose of 400mg/kg body weight to white albino rats to check for some effect on biochemical parameters. Twenty (20) rats divided into four (4) groups of five (5) rats each. One group was treated with distilled water and feed only serving as control, second group was treated with coconut water only while the third grou...

The purpose of this study was to investigate three types of extraction methods of extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) from the same cultivar (Ortice olive cultivar): traditional or pressing (T) system, decanter centrifugation (DC) system and a patented horizontal axis decanter centrifugation (HADC) system. Oil samples were subjected to chemical analyses: free acidity, peroxide value, ultraviolet ligh...

background: fatty acids are the main compounds in edible oils. oil thermal stability depends on the composition of fatty acids. so, this study was conducted to investigate the effect of fatty acid composition on the oxidative stability of extra virgin olive oil during heating process.  methods: totally, eight virgin olive oil samples, including five imported oils from market place of mahabad an...
