Some properties of Ayvalık olive oil
Journal Title: International Journal of Farming and Allied Sciences - Year 2013, Vol 2, Issue 7
Abstract
The purpose of this study was to determine the differences of some physico-chemical properties and fatty acid composition in a pure olive oil. Free fatty acids acid, dregs, iodine value, wax content, peroxide value and refractive index of both oils were determined. Fhe fatty acid compositions of the pure olive oil were carried out by the Varian 2100 Gas chromatography. Oleic (71.69%), palmitic (13.54 %), linoleic (10.78%) and stearic (2.75 %) acids have been identified as the dominant fatty acids, respectively. Free fatty acids (3.46 %), peroxide value (3.07 meq / kg) and dregs (0.2%) were important differences in the content.
