Vitamin E and fatty acid composition of blended palm oils

Vitamin E content (ppm) (4 tocopherols and 3 tocotrienols without ?-tocotrienol) and fatty acid composition (FAC) of blended unsaturated oils [corn oil (CO), sesame oil (SO) and rice bran oil (RBO)] with palm olein (PO) at 1 to 1 ratio (v/v) were determined using HPLC and GC, respectively. The vitam...
