Outline of Final Research Achievements

Although cooking oils are indispensable for modern dietary life, unsaturated fatty acids of oils are easily oxidized, and there is a problem that harmful components are produced by oxidative decomposition.
Phenolic components derived from oil plants in oils could be the indicators of the initial oxidation of oils. In this study, antioxidant properties of polar fractions of various cooking oils have been investigated and phenolic components have been identified, for establishment the quality evaluation methods of cooking oils by using the structural changes of contained phenols.
