DESCRIPTION:

Peroxide number is a key indicator of the quality and freshness of oils of plant origin, such as olive oil.
This parameter measures the amount of peroxides; a high peroxide number can indicate an onset of oil degradation, often due to exposure to light, heat or air.

In our laboratory, we are able to determine the number of peroxides accurately and quickly.
Through these analyses, we can monitor the state of preservation of the oil; this monitoring is useful to have the assurance that the oil maintains its organoleptic and nutritional properties, offering safety and quality to consumers.
