Popis: We investigated the potential of two oil extracts from seeds of Colliguaya integerrima (CIO) and Cynara cardunculus (CO) to use as nutritionally edible oils. For this purpose, oil quality was accessed by determining the fatty acid composition, peroxide value, acid value, iodine value, saponification number, phenolic contents, and oxidative stability during thermally induced oxidation of CIO and CO oils and compared to those of extra-virgin olive oil (EVOO). The chemical composition results demonstrated that both oils could be nutritional sources of essential unsaturated fatty acids. Moreover, according to the gravimetric analysis, the main decomposition step occurred in the temperature range of 200&ndash
420 °
C, showing a similar thermal behavior of EVOO oil. However, CO and EVOO oils showed a higher phenolic content at degradation onset temperature (T0) in contrast with CIO oil. The antioxidant activity of the different studied oils showed a direct correlation with the phenol contents, up to temperatures around 180 °
C, where the percentage of free radical scavenging assay for EVOO was higher than CO in contrast with the TPC values. Finally, we analyzed the minor components before and after heating CIO and CO at 180 °
C by gas chromatography&ndash
mass spectrometry (GC&ndash
MS) using library search programs.
