Abstract

The complexity of fat deterioration pathways necessitates the use of a variety of methods for determining the extent of deterioration of oils and fats. A single method of analysis is not suitable for analysis of fat deterioration in all situations. The methods used in the analysis of fat and oil deterioration and their applicability in different situations are discussed. Among common methods discussed are the use of peroxide p-anisidine thiobarbituric acid and thobarbituric acid values and oxidation stability tests. The correlation between indicators of primary oxidation and the correlation between indicators of secondary oxidation are shown. The use of the newer tests such as percent polar components and dielectric constant which are more suitable for monitoring frying fat deterioration is highlighted.
