ANALYTICAL METHODS FOR ANALYZING SOME OILSUSED IN COSMETICS

Abstract

In this paper three different oils have been analysed: sesame, olive and jasmine. For their analyses standard methods for oils and fats described by American Oil Chemists Society (AOCS, 1993) and pharmacopoeia assays (Brazilian pharmacopoeia, 2010), such: index of acid, saponification, iodine, peroxides, determination of potential of hydrogen (pH), and density. Those analyses are important because they indicate the quality and authenticity of the oil. The results showed that the oil extracted from sesame and olive has acceptable characteristics and is of good quality. For all of those the saponification index, the acidity and peroxidation value have been determined.
