Abstract

A study on effect of spice oleoresin and extracts on high temperature stability of some vegetable oils namely, soybean, sunflower and groundnut oils was carried out. Vegetable oils containing added chilli and pepper oleoresins or extracts at 0.01, 0.05, and 0.10% (wt/wt) were subjected to heating at 120°C for various time periods of 0, 2, 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, and 24 hr. Afterwards, samples were investigated for changes in color, peroxide formation and fatty acid composition using standard methods. Chilli and pepper oleoresin and extracts showed antioxidant effect in commercial soybean oil. There was a mild antioxidant effect in refined sunflower oil and unrefined groundnut oil. The extracts showed synergism with α-tocopherol when tested in sunflower oil. However, for deep frying purposes, the spice oleoresin or extracts may prove beneficial as antioxidants instead of the synthetic antioxidants.
