Abstract

In the present study, an attempt was made to investigate the effect of oleic acid on the autoxidation of the commercial rice bran oil. Rice bran oil samples with oleic acid at 0.1, 0.3 and 0.5% level were kept at 45 $\pm$ 0.3$^{\circ}C$ for 40 days. The rate of autoxidation of each samples was estimated regularly on the basis of the changes of peroxide value, acid value, anisidine value and the fatty acid composition. The per oxide, acid and anisidine values of the rice bran oil with the oleic acid increased as compared with that of the rice bran oil without the oleic acid during the autoxidation. The induction period of the rice bran oil without the oleic acid, control was 19.8 days, while those of the rice bran oil with oleic acid at 0.1, 0.3 and 0.5% levels were 18.3 days, 16.8 days, and 15.5 days, respectively. In conclusion, it seemed that oleic acid acted as weak prooxidant when added at 0.1, 0.3 and 0.5% levels to the commercial rice bran oil.
