Notes:
Ground, blanched, raw, and roasted peanuts with varying oil contents were analyzed for oxidation products. Peroxide values (PV) of blanched, ground raw (BRAW) peanuts, demonstrating enzymatic oxidation, and heat-treated rancid roasted peanuts (RRST), demonstrating autoxidation, exhibited decreases (p ≦ 0.05) with decreasing oil content. The Oxidative Stability Index (OSI) time at 110 °C increased (p 〈 0.05) with decrease in oil content of raw (BRAW) and roasted (BRST) ground peanuts. A higher OSI indicated more oxidative stability, thereby supporting the hypothesis of higher potential for autoxidation at higher oil contents. In addition, BRST exhibited a shorter OSI than BRAW, indicating slower autoxidation in BRAW. Roasted peanutty odor, burnt odor, and roasted peanutty flavor, rancid/oxidized flavor, and burnt flavor scores of rancid roasted peanuts decreased (p ≦ 0.05) with decreasing oil content.
