Introduction

  • Considerable time, effort and money is required to produce

high quality extra virgin olive oil (EVOO).

  • EVOO quality deteriorates over time, however the rate of

deterioration depends on: – Composition of the oil – Storage conditions

  • Research to determine the rate of deterioration based on

initial oil composition and storage conditions (temperature,

  • xygen, light exposure and storage container type).

Introduction – RIRDC projects

Project 1 – Effect of storage conditions on

  • live oil quality.

Project 2 – Effect of storage in bulk containers on olive oil quality.

» One oil stored in different container types

  • Results shown are for low stability oil (LP,HL)
  • Similar results for other oils
  • High stability oils – less likely to be rancid at low temperature

FFA PPP DAGs

  • FFA slight increase
  • PPP - increase 8-10% per year
  • DAGs decrease – 25-35% per year then reaches equilibrium

Light - Chlorophyll

  • Significant decrease in oils exposed to light
  • Same response in all oils
  • Antioxidant in dark, pro-oxidant in light

Green Brown/golden

  • Pyropheophytin a – breakdown product of chlorophyll
  • No chlorophyll = no PPP. Undetectable after initial analysis

Bulk storage - Total polyphenols

  • Container type had significant effect
  • Oxygen permeability of PE –

polyphenols consumed in oxidation process

eg presence of oxygen had no effect, identical for all containers

Conclusions – storage conditions

  • Storage conditions - significant influence on the quality of olive oil.

– Higher storage temperature – More rapid increase %FFA and PPP, decrease in DAGs and sensory quality – Oxygen exposure – More rapid increase PV and UV absorbance, decrease in antioxidants and sensory quality – Light exposure – More rapid decrease in tocopherols, chlorophyll, sensory quality

  • PPPs and DAGs

– Good indicators of freshness of oil – initial quality and storage conditions important

  • Keep olive oil in dark, cool areas and ensure exposure to oxygen is kept minimal to

maintain EVOO quality

slide-32
SLIDE 32

Conclusions - Bulk storage

  • Bulk storage containers can have a significant effect on
  • live oil quality

– be aware of the type of material used – oxygen permeability – ensure storage temperature is kept as low as possible and exposure to light is limited.
