Soybean oil used to fry French fries, chicken nuggets, and donuts was exposed to high temperature at $180^{\circ}C$ for 72 h. The effects of frying foods on the thermooxidative stability of soybean oil were evaluated by determining the contents of free fatty acids, peroxides, total polar compounds, and conjugated dienoic acids, and by analyzing dielectric constant, refractive index, iodine value, smoke point, and fatty acid composition. The contents of free fatty acids, total polar compounds, conjugated dienoic acids, dielectric constant, and refractive index increased, whereas iodine value, smoke point, and U/S ratio of fatty acids composition decreased with frying time. All samples of frying oils after 72 h presented free fatty acid contents of below 2.0% and total polar compounds of below 25%, which were within the legal limits. However, peroxide values of frying oils were not directly correlated with frying time. The type of fried food affected the thermooxidative stability of the frying oils, with chicken nuggets being more stable in thermooxidation than French fries and donust. Among physiochemical indicators of frying oil quality, a rapid method including dielectric constant and refractive index can be used in quantity food production.

The 2,2-diphenyl picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) method, which can be used to predict the oxidative stability of edible oils, was previously reported by our research group. Not only free radical scavenging antioxidants but also radicals from oxidized oils are capable of reacting with DPPH radicals, thereby reducing the absorbance of DPPH. In this study, the optimum sample size of edible oils for the DPPH method was determined, and the oxidation of the edible oils was monitored via DPPH, coupled with other conventional methods. The optimum sample size was determined as 1.5 g using soybean oil. Soybean, corn, virgin olive, and refined olive oils were thermally oxidized for 3 hr at $180^{\circ}C$ and analyzed via DPPH, conjugated dienoic acid (CDA) value, and p-anisidine value (p-AV) protocols. Soybean and corn oils were found to be more sensitive to thermal oxidation than virgin and refined olive oils, on the basis of the CDA value and p-AV measurements. The DPPH method can indicate the inherent radical scavenging activity of unoxidized samples, the time required for the depletion of antioxidants, and the rate of degradation of the antioxidants. The soybean and corn oils evidenced higher levels of free radical scavenging compounds, required more time for the consumption of inherent antioxidants, and also manifested steeper antioxidant degradation rates than olive oils, based on the results of DPPH analysis. The DPPH method, accompanied by other conventional methods, may prove useful in predicting the degree of oxidation of vegetable oils.

Carrots were deep fat fried with sunflower oil (SO), palm oil (PO), and a blend of palm and sunflower oils (PSO with PO:SO as 2:8 or 4:6) at different temperatures (180 and 190℃) and lengths of time (0.5 to 2.5 min). The quality of deep fat fried carrots was determined by the moisture and fat content, color, conjugated dienoic acid (CDA), hydroperoxide, p-anisidine value, and fatty acid composition. The moisture content of fried carrots decreased with increasing frying time, while the fat content increased. The CDA and p-anisidine values of carrots fried with SO were higher than those fried with PO because of greater unsaturated fatty acids content in SO. PSO was a better choice than SO or PO for deep fat frying carrots in the aspects of oxidative stability and ratio of unsaturated to saturated fatty acids. These results indicate that the quality of deep fat fried carrots depends on the type of oil and frying temperature used, as well as the length of time.

Effects of lignan compounds (sesamol, sesamin, and sesamolin) extracted from roasted sesame oil on the autoxidation at $60^{\circ}C$ for 7 days and thermal oxidation at $180^{\circ}C$ for 10 hr of sunflower oil were studied by determining conjugated dienoic acid (CDA) contents, p-anisidine values (PAV), and fatty acid composition. Contents of lignan compounds during the oxidations were also monitored. ${\alpha}$-Tocopherol was used as a reference antioxidant. Addition of lignan compounds decreased CDA contents and PAY of the oils during oxidation at $60^{\circ}C$ or heating at $180^{\circ}C$, which indicated that sesame oil lignans lowered the autoxidation and thermal oxidation of sunflower oil. Sesamol was the most effective in decreasing CDA formation and hydroperoxide decomposition in the auto- and thermo-oxidation of oil, and its antioxidant activity was significantly higher than that of ${\alpha}$-tocopherol. Sesamol, sesamin, and sesamolin added to sunflower oil were degraded during the oxidations of oils, with the fastest degradation of sesamol. Degradation of sesamin and sesamolin during the oxidations of the oil were lower than that of ${\alpha}$-tocopherol. The results strongly indicate that the oxidative stability of sunflower oil can be improved by the addition of sesamol, sesamin, or sesamolin extracted from roasted sesame oil.

The changes of the physico-chemical characteristics of potato and chicken frying oil with frying number were examined. The changes in temperatures of frying oil during the potato flying were greater than that during the chicken frying. The weight loss of potato during deep frying was about 21.9% and about 12.3% for chicken. The acid values and conjugated dienoic acid values of the potato and chicken frying oils increased with increased frying number. Their values were greater in the chicken frying oil than in the potato frying oil. The peroxide values of frying oil did not change regularly as frying number increased. But iodine values of the frying oils decreased with increased frying number. Linoleic acid content of the frying oil decreased, whereas oleic acid content increased with frying number.

Light effects on temperature dependence of safflower oil oxidation and tocopherol degradation were studied. Safflower oil was oxidized at 20, 40, 60, or $80^{\circ}C$ for 30, 30, 15, and 6 days, respectively, in the dark or under light. Oil oxidation was evaluated with peroxide value (POV) and conjugated dienoic acid (CDA) value, and tocopherols were monitored by HPLC. Safflower oil consisted of palmitic, stearic, oleic, and linoleic acids at 7.3, 2.0, 14.2, and 76.6%, respectively, with tocopherols at 1157.1 mg/kg. Peroxide and CDA values of safflower oil increased while tocopherol contents decreased with the oxidation time and temperature. Light increased and accelerated the oil oxidation and tocopherol degradation. Temperature dependence of the oil oxidation and tocopherol degradation was higher in the dark rather than under light. The results suggest that temperature control could be more essential in the dark rather than under light with regard to the oxidative stability of safflower oil.

Lipid oxidation and contents of tocopherols and phospholipids (PL) in soy-added fried products during storage in the dark were studied. Flour dough containing soy flour at 0, 10, 20, and 30% on a weight basis was fried in corn oil at $180^{\circ}C$ for 2.5 min. The fried products were stored at $60^{\circ}C$ for 11 days in the dark. Lipid oxidation of the fried products was evaluated by conjugated dienoic acid (CDA) and p-anisidine values (PAV). Tocopherols and PL were determined by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). CDA contents and PAV of the fried products were increased during storage, and addition of soy flour improved lipid oxidative stability of the fried products, which was partly related to increased amount of tocopherols and PL in the soy-added fried products. Tocopherols and PL were degraded during the dark storage of the fried products. Soy flour addition to the dough did not affect the rate of tocopherols degradation during storage of the fried products; however, PL degradation was higher in the soy-added fried products. Residual amounts of $\alpha$-tocopherol and phosphatidylinositol showed high correlations with the lipid oxidation of the fried products during storage in the dark.

This study investigated changes in the quality properties of deep frying oil and fried chickens according to frying number. Acid values of frying oil and fried chicken after frying 110 chickens were 2.27 and 1.90, respectively. The peroxide values of frying oil did not increase uniformly as frying number increased. Conjugated dienoic acid value of frying oil and fried chicken after frying 110 chickens were 0.70 and 0.44, respectively. Regarding the fatty acid composition after frying 110 chickens, linoleic and linolenic acids decreased, whereas palmitic, stearic, and oleic acids increased. Contents of trans fatty acids in frying oil and fried chicken after frying 110 chickens were 0.75% and 0.45%, respectively. Contents of benzo [a] pyrene in frying oil and fried chicken after frying 110 chickens were 2.20 and 2.19 ${\mu}g/kg$, respectively. The quality properties of frying oil and fried chickens significantly decreased after frying 60 chickens.

Commercial soybean oil, which did not contain any antioxidant, were autoxidized at $60{\pm}2^{\circ}C$ for 79 days, and the changes of peroxide value(POV), thiobarbituric acid value(TBAV), conjugated dienoic acid(CDA) content, and fatty acid composition of the oil were studied during the 79 day-storage period. The samples with POV S of 0, 150, 300, 500, 450, 400 and 300 meq./kg oil were used for the test of mutagenic activity. The Ames test was carried out with and without metabolic activation. Bacterial strains used in this study were the histidine auxotrophic strains of S. typhimurium TA100, TA1535, and TA102 for the detection of base pair, and TA98 and TA1537 for frame shift mutations. Each series of samples was disso1ved in tetrahydrofuran(inhibitor free) and tested at doses ranging from 0.05 to 5 mg/plate. The autoxidized soybean oil increased significantly(p<0.05) the number of $His^+$ revertant colonies in cases of TA 98 with S9 mix, TA100 without S9 mix, 1535 and 1537 with and without S9, respectively. The samples having the highest peroxide values showed the strongest mutagenicity. It seemed that the amount of hydroperoxides in the oils was closely related to the mutagenic activity of the respective oils.

This study was performed to evaluate the effects of sesame oil addition to a tuna oil-enriched emulsion during chlorophyll-photosensitized oxidation. The emulsion principally consisted of tocopherol-stripped canola and tuna oil with or without sesame oil, acetic acid, phospholipids, and xanthan gum. Chlorophyll b was added to promote the production of singlet oxygen upon exposure to light. The oxidation of oil in the emulsion was evaluated by determining the peroxide value (POV) and conjugated dienoic acid (CDA) contents. Concentrations of minor compounds in the emulsion were monitored. Increasing POV and CDA contents in the emulsion were paralleled with decreased docosahexaenoic acid during oxidation, and oxidation was inhibited by the addition of sesame oil. Chlorophyll, polyphenols, tocopherol, and phospholipids were degraded during oxidation of the emulsion; however, their degradation was slowed down by the addition of sesame oil. Lignans in the emulsions containing added sesame oil were barely changed, suggesting that they quenched singlet oxygen physically. Polyphenols were the most effective in improving the stability of tuna oil-enriched emulsions during chlorophyll-photosensitized oxidation.
