Physicochemical Stability of Cold-Pressed Yellow Poppy Seed Oil from Afyonkarahisar during Repeated Frying

Abstract

In this study, the physicochemical changes in cold-pressed poppy seed oil used during the frying process were investigated. Cold press yields of poppy seeds at different pressing speeds were calculated, ranging between 32% and 41%. The frying process was carried out using potatoes (180 °C for 3–4 minutes, repeated seven times), and detailed physicochemical analyses were performed on the oil after each frying cycle. The results showed that the free fatty acid content of the poppy seed oil ranged from 0.90% to 0.94% before and after frying. Peroxide values were measured between 0.30 and 0.72 meq O₂/kg, while total polar compounds ranged from 9.3% to 11.8%. Fatty acid composition analysis revealed that among 13 identified fatty acids, palmitic acid (7.58–9.10%) was the most abundant saturated fatty acid, whereas linoleic acid (72.60–74.16%) was predominant among unsaturated fatty acids. Additionally, iodine value, color, saponification number, and unsaponifiable matter content of the poppy seed oil were determined after each frying session. Statistically, it was determined that the peroxide value, iodine value, color, saponification number, total polar compounds, and trans fatty acid values of poppy seed oil changed during the frying process. Overall, the findings indicate that cold-pressed poppy seed oil is suitable for repeated use in frying applications.
