| Abstract: | Investigations on the Autoxidation of Margarine The authors investigated the influence of storage temperature, packing and of the quality of dispersion on the oxidative stability of margarine. The oxidative stability of margarine is improved with increasing fineness of the dispersion. The autoxidation can be prevented to a great extent by employing low storage temperature and suitable packing material. Packing materials containing traces of heavy metals promote the autoxidation in the upper layer of margarine. |
