For several years, certain batches of cocoa from Côte d'Ivoire have been considered to have a free fatty acid (FFA) content well over the official standard (1.75% oleic acid equivalent). This leads to a decline in the quality and commercial value of Ivorian cocoa. The origin and optimum conditions of the lipase activity involved in this phenomenon were studied. (Résumé d'auteur)
