“…In all samples the AV peaked quickly (within ~12 h), maintained this high value for 12 h and then declined within the next 12 h. After this period it remained relatively constant until the end of the incubation (~72 h). Generally, reports have indicated that the AV of an oil increases with increasing levels of free fatty acids due to triglyceride hydrolysis; typically after long storage of oil or oil-rich products (Fuse, Kusu, & Takamura, 1997;Yuan, Liu, Ma, Zhu, Liu, & Na, 2006). However, it has also been reported that AV can decrease in the later periods of storage after initially rising in earlier storage period (Guo, Bai, Jiang, Shao, Wang, & He, 2009;Wang, Huang, & Wang, 2010;Ding, & Fei, 2011).…”
