Keywords:
Groundnut Oil, Analysis, Saponification Value, Acid ValueAbstract
Samples of groundnut oil from three well-known commercial brands in Gujarat (viz. Ankur, Gulab, Fortune) were tested for various analytical parameters viz. Refractive Index, Acid value, Free fatty acids, Ester value, % Glycerin and Saponification value. Results and inference are presented in this paper.
