Data on mineral composition, fatty acids, oxidative stability, UV-VIS spectra and fluorescence emission of the Dersani® and Sunflower® oils used as a cicatrizing agent.

Dersani® and sunflower® oils are used by the Brazilian population as a cicatrizing agent. However, data on physical and chemical properties of these oils are scarce. In this data article on oils, we determined a total of 14 fatty acids composition by gas chromatography (GC), as well as quantifying the elements contents (Ca, K, Mg, Al, Cr, Fe, Mn, Na, P, Se and Zn) using inductively coupled plasma optical spectrometry (ICP OES). Rancimat method was used to determine the oxidative stability of the oils at temperature of 110 °C, in which the induction times for Dersani® and Sunflower® oils were 1.54 (±0.02) and 6.21 (±0.17) hours, respectively. Spectroscopic techniques UV-VIS and fluorescence were employed to obtain spectral datasets. UV-VIS and fluorescence spectroscopy reveals the presence of phenolic, tocopherols, tocotrienols and methyl-linolenate compounds in the oils. The determination of mineral and others contents in oils is an important criterion for the assessment of oil quality with regard to oxidation and their toxicity, properties and storage.
