Abstract
Characterization of Phenolic Profile and Antioxidant Potential of Some Algerian Olive Oils Cultivars
Highlights
Olive oil is a source of antioxidants and poses positive effects on human health, in particular to exert some of the cardio protective properties (Carrióna et al, 2016)
The differences in phenolic contents of the olive oil cultivars of the present investigation are probably related to the cultivar, since all studied olive oils derived from olives which are cultivated under similar conditions, and the same extraction method is adopted to extract the oils
The results of phosphomolybdenum method carried out in this study indicated that Bouchouk cultivar which contains low levels of phenolics, showed a high total antioxidant capacity; this could be explained by its high content of reducing compounds rather than phenolic constituents
Summary
Olive oil is a source of antioxidants and poses positive effects on human health, in particular to exert some of the cardio protective properties (Carrióna et al, 2016). Characterization of phenolic profile and antioxidant potential of some Algerian olive oils cultivars. The objective of the current study was firstly to identify and quantify the phenolics of Algerian olive oils obtained from the three most representative olive cultivars cultivated in other location rather than previously reported; secondly, the antioxidant activity of the samples was evaluated. The objective of this study was firstly to identify and quantify the phenolics of some Algerian olive oils; secondly, the antioxidant activity of the samples was assessed. Significant differences (p
