Abstract
Olive oil, being very salubrious, is one of the main ingredients of the Mediterranean diet. However, high oil prices combined with high consumption have increasingly subjected olive oils to fraudulent practices. The large rise in numbers of producers engaging in this illicit practice has made it necessary to develop a swift, convenient, and consistent analytical methodology to detect adulterating oil products and ensure product quality. In this study, we have merged multivariate statistical analysis with one-dimensional (1D) 700 MHz 1H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) to analyze different types of vegetable and olive oil.
Additionally, we have spiked virgin olive oil with varying percentages (1%–75% (v/v)) of other vegetable oils to obtain the spectra of adulterated olive oil. As a result, the method applied in our study can not only detect adulterated olive oils but also identify mixed adulterants. Ease of sample preparation, quick sample analysis, and straightforward data comprehension distinguishes this method from the currently published ones.

Food Control covers the below areas that relate to food process control or to food safety of human foods:
• Microbial food safety and antimicrobial systems
• Mycotoxins
• Hazard analysis, HACCP and food safety objectives
• Risk assessment, including microbial and chemical hazards
• Quality assurance
• Good manufacturing practices
• Food process systems design and control
• Food Packaging technology and materials in contact with foods
• Rapid methods of analysis and detection, including sensor technology
• Codes of practice, legislation and international harmonization
• Consumer issues
• Education, training and research needs.
The scope of Food Control is comprehensive and includes original research papers, authoritative reviews, short communications, comment articles that report on new developments in food control, and position papers.
