The feasibility of using DSC as an analytical method to evaluate the autoxidation of olive oil at 50degreesC and thermal oxidation at 93 and 180degreesC in 10-mL airtight vials was studied. DSC peak enthalpy and peak crystallization temperatures were compared with headspace oxygen depletion and headspace volatiles in oxidized oil samples. A single crystallization peak was found in olive oil. The crystallization peak shifted to lower temperatures, and the enthalpy associated with this phase transition decreased as the exposure time increased at 93 and 180degreesC. DSC peak enthalpy in olive oil at 50, 93, and 180degreesC showed correlations of 0.84, 0.91, and 0.95, respectively, with headspace oxygen depletion in sample bottles. Correlation of DSC initial peak temperature with headspace oxygen depletion was 0.53, 0.87, and 0.95 at 50, 93, and 180degreesC, respectively. Correlations of DSC peak enthalpy and initial peak temperature with headspace volatiles at 180degreesC were 0.95 and 0.97, respectively. These results indicate that DSC is a good analytical method to determine the oxidative stability of olive oil at trying temperature.
