Stability Assessment of KO Emulsion under Accelerated Oxidation
Conditions
To assess the stability of the emulsion, lipid oxidation experiments
were conducted by placing two sets of emulsions in sealed screw-cap
glass tubes covered with aluminum foil. These samples were then
incubated for 30 d in an incubator at a temperature of 50 °C to
accelerate the oxidation process. At intervals of 5 d, samples were
analyzed to monitor the production of primary lipid oxidation products.
Measurements were based on the peroxide value (POV) and acid value (AV).
The analysis followed the guidelines provided by the American Oil
Chemists’ Society (AOCS) official method AOCS Cd 8-53 (AOCS,1998).
