The health effects of olive oil have attracted the attention of people for ages. Our contry has a very high level of olive and olive oil production and export. Olive oil (Olivea oleum) is a greenish/yellowish, transparent and aromatic liquid obtained without undergoing any chemical treatment after squeezing together with the pit of the olive. The international olive oil council classifies refined olive oil, extra virgin olive oil, and pomace olive oil. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to analyze and evaluate the extra virgin olive oils sold in Istanbul according to the Turkish Standard (TS) 894 and TS 341. With this purpose, the determination of colorappearance, free fatty acidity (in oleic acid), number of saponification, iodine index, refractive index, density, mineral oil, number of peroxide, humidity and amount of volatile matter were performed. In this study, 26 different olive oil samples were analyzed. Free fatty acidity of 24 samples (92%) was found suitable to the standard, whereas the number of peroxide and mineral oil values of samples were compatible with the standard. The iodine number and density values of only 21 samples (80%) were conformed to the standard. Twenty olive oils (77%) were found to be suitable for the refractive index. The number of saponification is appropriate in 17 samples (65%), while the humidity value of 23 olive oils (88%) aresuitable to the standart. As a result, only 11 olive oils (42%) were compatible with the standard. In conclusion, the event that the olive oils sold in the market violate the Standard, the consumer is deceived and expected health benefits are also decreasing.
