The effects of storage condition on the physicochemical characteristics of sunflower seed oil (SSO) were investigated, to understand the required conditions and the typical indicators for its quality control. The changes of SSO in peroxide value (PV), acid value (AV), fatty acid (FA) composition, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectrum and volatile compound (VC) during 11 month storage under seven different conditions, were analyzed. The PVs and AVs of the seven groups all increased with time, but the PVs fluctuated strongly during the last ...
