This study investigated the classification of olive oils that are mainly distributed in Korea via imports. The fatty acid contents, degree of color, pigments, anti-oxidants, and sterol contents are analyzed on the different types of olive oil as follows: 10 kinds of extra virgin olive oil, 5 kinds of pure olive oil, and 5 kinds of refined olive-pomace oil. As a result of fatty acid analysis, the majority of oleic acid ($C_{18:1}$) and palmitic acid ($C_{16:0}$), and minority of linoleic acid ($C_{18:2}$) and stearic acid ($C_{18:0}$) were detected without any significant differences between the grades of olive oils. The UV spectrum is related to the ${\Delta}K$, and it is a part of the analysis factor for the purity and degree of degradation of the oil. Extra virgin olive oil had ${\Delta}K$ of almost 0, pure olive oil had 0.07~0.12, and refined olive-pomace oil had 0.1~0.13. These differed from extra virgin oil, and the pure or pomace oil ${\Delta}K$ had a confirmed distinct difference. The color degrees of chlorophyll with a low $L^*$ value and $(-)a^*$ (green) and carotenoid with $(+)b^*$ (yellow) were confirmed to have correlation between extra virgin and other olive oils. To compare chlorophyll and carotenoid as natural pigment in olive oils, 417 nm and the ratio of the absorbance at 480 nm (417/480) was calculated at 1.62 of extra virgin, 1.85 of pure olive oil, and 3.32 of refined olive-pomace oil. Therefore, it will be possible to distinguish when the extra virgin or pure olive oil are mixed with olive-pomace oil. The total amount of tocopherol, an anti-oxidant, were 19.06 in extra virgin, 10.91 in pure olive oil, and 27.88 in refined olive-pomace oil. The high content of tocopherol in pomace oil caused recovery of solvent extraction from olive pulp. Thus, extra virgin oil and pure olive oil were distinguished by olive-pomace oil. Polyphenol compounds in extra virgin olive oil measured high only in ferulic acid with 0.543 mg/kg, caffeic acid with 0.393 mg/kg, and other vanillic acid, vanillin, and p-coumaric acid had similar amount of 0.3 mg/kg. All grade of olive oils had the highest ${\beta}$-sitosterol content. Af (Authenticity factor) value were estimated with campesterol and stigmasterol content ratio (%). Af value was 19.2 in extra virgin olive oil, 17.1 in pure olive oil, 16.9 in refined olive-pomace oil, which were distinctive from sunflower oil with 3.7, corn oil with 2.4, and soybean oil with 2.0. It can provide important indicator of olive oil adulteration with other cheap vegetable oils. The results of this study can be used as a database for the classification of olive oil grade and distinguishing between the different types of oils.

Total tocopherol and phenol contents were determined for virgin and pure oilve oil, and their autoxidation and thermal oxidation were compared with those of commercial soybean oil, in the presence or absence of fluorescent light. The total tocopherol contents of virgin, pure olive oil, and soybean oil were 15.7, 11.2, and 80.7 mg/100 g, respectively. Their total phenol contents were 10.4, 1.6 and 0.5 mg/l00 g, respectively. In autoxidation under dark place at 45$^{\circ}C$, the oxidative stability of the substrate oils decreased in order of virgin oilve oil, pure olive oil, and soybean oil. The average temperature coefficients of the virgin, pure olive oil and soybean oil in the range of 45∼$65^{\circ}C$ were 1.73, 1.83 and 1.64, and the activation energies were 26.86, 29.49, and 24.07 KJ/mol, respectively. In temperature range of 45∼$65^{\circ}C$, pure olive oil was the most susceptible to temperature change, whereas soybean oil the least. In autoxidation under fluorescent light at 45$^{\circ}C$, the oxidative stability of substrate oils decreased in the order of soybean oil, pure olive oil, and virgin olive oil. In thermal oxidation at 18$0^{\circ}C$, the oxidative stability of substrate oils decreased in order of pure olive oil, virgin olive oil, and soybean oil.

An investigation of various olive oils available in Korea was carried out to assess their quality properties such as color, oxidative stability, fatty acid composition, tocopherol content, sterol content and benzo(a)pyrene content. In color measurement, by using a Lovibond color scale and Hunter color difference meter, both a and b values of extra virgin olive oil were higher than those of pure olive oil by Tintometer (Lovibond PFX995). However, extra virgin olive oil showed higher a value and lower L value than pure olive oil by the Hunter color difference meter. In the rancimat test, the induction period of extra virgin olive oil $(38.03{\sim}8.47hr)$ was longer than that of pure olive oil $(32.40{\sim}9.94hr)$. In fatty acid composition, C18:1 $(72.01{\sim}78.53wt%)$ was present in the greatest amount, with lesser amounts of C18:2 $(4.88{\sim}10.36wt%)$ and C18:3 $(0.56{\sim}1.09wt%)$. The tocopherol content ranged from ${\alpha}-Toc\;4.09{\sim}13.89mg/100g$, ${\beta}-Toc\;0.57{\sim}1.34mg/100g$, and ${\gamma}-Toc$ $3.41{\sim}8.03mg/100g$, and ${\alpha}-tocopherol$ was found to be the main isomer in all oil samples. Therefore, there was little difference in the fatty acid composition and tocopherol content among the different types of olive oils. In sterol content, ${\beta}-sitosterol$ $(124.52{\sim}19.33mg/100g)$ and campesterol $(1.10{\sim}0.62mg/100g)$ of extra virgin olive oil were higher than that of pure olive oil $({\beta}-sitosterol\;92.68{\sim}17.44mg/100g,\;campesterol\;0.59{\sim}0.35mg/100g)$. Benzo(a)pyrene was found in almost all samples, with $0.287{\sim}0.106{\mu}g/kg$ in extra virgin olive oil and $1.204{\sim}2.130{\mu}g/kg$ in pure olive oil.

The purposes of this study were twofold. First, it aimed to develop the olive-oil liaison (Roux). Second, it tried to examine customer perceptions of the olive-oil liaison compared with commonly used butter liaison in hotel restaurants. The theme of the study was derived from the present trend of pursuing healthy food so-called 'well-being'. As a result, the extra virgin olive-oil liaison(Roux) with the optimal ratio of 1.4 : 1 (flour: olive-oil) was developed through repeated sensory tests. The findings also showed that customers prefer products with the olive-oil liaison to products with butter liaison in terms of satisfaction and intention to re-purchase.

The aim of this study was to determine the various bioactive components of five olive oil varieties, as well as to assess their contribution to the oxidative stability of the oils. Fatty acids, ${\alpha}$-tocopherol, ${\beta}$-carotene, total flavonoids, total phenols, and certain phenolic compounds of extra virgin olive oils (EVOO; blended, arbequina, hojiblanca, and picual) and pure olive oil (POO) were examined. Oxidation stability was evaluated by the peroxide value (POV). The total content of all the studied antioxidant compounds was significantly higher in the EVOOs than the POO (p<0.05). Among the EVOOs, picual had the highest levels of ${\alpha}$-tocopherol ($10.18{\pm}0.40\;mg/100\;g$), ${\beta}$-carotene ($557{\pm}8\;{\mu}g/100\;g$), and total phenols ($110.7{\pm}1.3\;mg/g$), which correlated strongly with antioxidative capacity. Furthermore, the lowest POV occurred in picual EVOO and correlated with the highest monounsaturated fatty acid (MUFA, C16:1 and C18:1) and lowest polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA, C18:2 and C18:3) compositions, suggesting the ratio of MUFA to PUFA is a critical parameter for the oxidative stability of olive oil. Our results indicate that the oxidative stability and antioxidant potential of EVOO depends not only on the antioxidant vitamins, but also on the amount of phenolic compounds and fatty acid profile of the oil.

Olive oil is widely consumed in Korea, and is a representative fat source in the Mediterranean diet, known to be effective in the prevention of coronary artery disease. In addition, diverse functionalities have been reported, such as anti-cancer, anti-oxidation, and anti-inflammation effects. In this review, the status of production and variety were investigated with respect to the functionalities of olive oil. The main functional constituents of olive oil are oleic acid, known to improve blood cholesterol, and the minor constituents are polyphenol, tocopherol, squalene, and phospholipid, the concentrations of which can be used to distinguish pressed from refined olive oil. A number of studies of the functionality of olive oil have dealt with the minor constituents, and the beneficial functionalities, such as anti-oxidation, anti-inflammation, and improving blood circulation have been reported. This review intensively investigates the functionalities and the responsible components, and suggests that continual studies on olive oil are necessary for the prevention of various metabolic diseases.

The traditional (European) Mediterranean diet is characterized by an abundance of plant foods such as bread, pasta, vegetables, salad, legumes, fruit, nuts; olive oil as the principal source of fat; low to moderate amounts offish, poultry, dairy products and eggs; only small amounts of red meat; low to moderate amounts of wine, normally consumed with meals. This diet is low in saturated fatty acids, rich in carbohydrate and fibre, and has a high content of monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFA). These are primarily derived from olive oil. Despite a wealth of general knowledge concerning the major classes of compounds present in olives and olive oil, detailed knowledge of the phenolic antioxidant content has been lacking. Therefore the aim of the study was to evaluate the phenolic antioxidant content in a range of olive and seed oils. While seed oils were devoid, on average, the olive oils contained $196{\pm}19mg/kg$ total phenolics as judged by HPLC analysis, but the value for extravirgin ($232{\pm}15 mg/kg$) was significantly higher than that of refined virgin olive oil ($62{\pm}12mg/kg$; P<0.0001). Appreciable quantities of simple phenols (hydroxytyrosol and tyrosol) were detected in olive oils, with significant differences between extravirgin ($41.87{\pm}6.17$) and refined virgin olive oils ($4.72{\pm}2.15$; P<0.01). The major linked phenols were secoiridoids and lignans. Although extravirgin contained higher concentrations of secoiridoids ($27.72{\pm}6.84$) than refined olive oils ($9.30{\pm}3.81$) this difference was not significant. On the other hand the concentration of lignans was significantly higher (P<0.001) in extravirgin ($41.53{\pm}3.93$) compared to refined virgin olive oils ($7.29{\pm}2.56$). All classes of phenolics were shown to be potent antioxidants. In future epidemiolgic studies, both the nature and source of olive oil consumed should be differentiated in ascertaining cancer risk.

The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of the duration of frying and storage periods on physicochemical characteristics of various oils using at home. The materials used for the study consisted of four kinds of vegetable oils: soybean, canola, extra virgin olive and pure olive oils, and shortening. Chicken breasts were fried in oils heated at $180^{\circ}C$. The oils were stored with or without filtering and reused 3 times, during the 10 day period. The extra virgin and pure olive oils showed higher acid, peroxide value and yellowness than the other oils (p<0.05), but soybean oil showed the highest increase in acid, peroxide value and yellowness with reusing and storage. In sensory evaluation, the chicken breast fried with soybean oils remarkably decreased the overall acceptance. These results suggested that all frying oils are available because acid and peroxide values of the oils are lower than the standard level. However, reusing soybean oil should be noted with caution in that it is very easy to reduce rancidity, and extra virgin olive oil is not appropriate for frying.
