Abstract/OtherAbstract:
The similarities and differences of eight vegetable oils produced in China were investigated in terms of their fatty acid, sterol and tocopherol compositions and subsequent date processing by hierarchical clustering analysis and principal component analysis. The lipid profiles, acquired by analytical techniques tailored to each lipid class, revealed great similarities among the fatty acid profiles of corn and sesame oil as well as few differences in their sterol profiles. It turns out that not only the great similarity among the fatty acid profile of corn oil and sesame oil but also that there were not too many differences for sterol profile. Sunflower and tea-seed oil showed similar sterol compositions, while the tea-seed oil tocopherol was very similar to palm oil. The results demonstrated that only the use of one of these profiles was unreliable for indentifying oil origin and authenticity. In contrast, the use of sterol or tocopherol profile together with fatty acid profile more accurately discriminate these oils.
