Article Synopsis
- The study analyzed various cold-pressed edible oils from Macedonia, focusing on their bioactive compounds and antioxidant activity evaluated through three different assays.
- Apricot kernel oils were high in monounsaturated oleic acid, while paprika seed oil was rich in polyunsaturated linoleic acid, and γ-tocopherol was most abundant in sesame seed oil.
- Different assays proved most effective for specific oils, with DPPH being best for sunflower oil, TEAC for sesame and paprika seed oils, and β-carotene for oils from highly pigmented plants.
