Abstract

Palm, rice bran and sesame oils were blended with groundnut, mustard and sunflower oils in the ratios of 20:80 and 20:20:20:40, w/w to exploit the nutritional potential and associated benefits of natural antioxidants present in them. Physico-chemical characteristics, antioxidant content (β-carotene, tocopherols, oryzanol, sesamin, sesamolin) and fatty acid composition of oils and oil blends were studied by standard methods, including HPLC analysis. Results indicated that the oil blends did not show much changes in their physico-chemical characteristics, fatty acid composition and natural antioxidants compared to the original oils used for the preparation of oil blends. This study has shown the feasibility of use of oil blends for getting natural antioxidant enriched vegetable oil blends which may be termed as health oils.
