Abstract
BACKGROUND: Palm oil is one of the major oils and fats produced and traded worldwide. The value of palm oil products is
mainly influenced by their quality. According to ISO 17025:2005, accredited laboratories require a quality control procedure
with respect to monitoring the validity of tests for determination of quality parameters. This includes the regular use of internal
quality control using secondary reference materials. Unfortunately, palm oil reference materials are not currently available. To
establish internal quality control samples, the stability of quality parameters needs to be evaluated.
RESULTS: In the present study, the stability of quality parameters for palm oil products was examined over 10 months at low
temperature storage (6 ± 2 ∘ C). The palm oil products tested included crude palm oil (CPO); refined, bleached and deodorized
(RBD) palm oil (RBDPO); RBD palm olein (RBDPOo); and RBD palm stearin (RBDPS). The quality parameters of the oils [i.e.
moisture content, free fatty acid content (FFA), iodine value (IV), fatty acids composition (FAC) and slip melting point (SMP)]
were determined prior to and throughout the storage period. The moisture, FFA, IV, FAC and SMP for palm oil products changed
significantly (P < 0.05), whereas the moisture content for CPO, IV for RBDPO and RBDPOo, stearic acid composition for CPO and
linolenic acid composition for CPO, RBDPO, RBDPOo and RBDPS did not (P > 0.05). The stability study indicated that the quality
of the palm oil products was stable within the specified limits throughout the storage period at low temperature.
CONCLUSION: The storage conditions preserved the quality of palm oil products throughout the storage period. These findings
qualify the use of the palm oil products CPO, RBDPO, RBDPOo and RBDPS as control samples in the validation of test results.
