To follow the relative rate of oxidative deterioration of edible oils, refined olive, corn and soybean oils were analyzed periodically for their peroxide value (PV), p-anisidine value (p-AV) and iodine value (IV) following exposure to air and air-light for 30 days. Changes in the above values of the oils were also examined and after being used for deep frying of French fries at 180 degrees C for varying periods of time i.e. 30, 60 and 90 min PV and p-AV values increased in the order, deep frying > air-light exposure > air exposure, while the values with respect to the oils increased as soybean > corn > olive. Decreases in IV followed the same pattern, i.e. deep frying > air-light > air and soybean > corn > olive. %Free fatty acid increased with increase in time of deep-frying. Deep-frying of French fries in corn oil was also carried out in presence of caffeic, ferulic, vanillic acid and crude tea extract as antioxidants. All antioxidants effectively reduced the oxidation rate in the oil as detected by decreases in PVs and p-AVs and relatively low reduction rates in IVs for all the frying times. The order of antioxidative activity was caffeic acid > vanillic acid > ferulic acid > tea extract. Variation in %FFA of corn oil due to variation in nature of fried food was also analyzed. %FFA of the oil used for deep frying of chicken drum sticks were higher than the values of the oil used for deep-frying of French fries.
