Improving the Frying Performance and Oxidative Stability of Refined Soybean Oil by Tocotrienol-Rich Unsaponifiable Matters of Kolkhoung (Pistacia khinjuk) Hull Oil

Increasing consumer awareness for all natural products has quickly led to growing research on new resources of potent and profitable natural antioxidants. In this context, for the first time, the Kolkhoung hull oil (KHO) (Pistacia khinjuk)-unsaponifiable matters (USM) (UHO) (100, 200, and 400 mg kg−1) were incorporated into refined soybean oil (RSO) and the oxidative stability of prepared oils was measured during 32 hours of frying. Then, the obtained results (oxidative stability) were compared to the samples containing tert-butyl hydroquinone (TBHQ) (100 mg kg−1) as a common synthetic antioxidant. According to the results of oxidative stability assays of acid values, conjugated diene value…
