Özet
In this study, the effects of leaf addition, maturity stage and storage on the antioxidant content and activity of olive oils (cv. Memecik) were investigated in the 2008/09 and 2009/10 crop seasons. Olive fruits were harvested at two different maturity stages (early and late), and the leaves of the same cultivar were added at different rates (0, 1, and 3 %) prior to oil extraction. After extraction, the oil samples were stored for 18 months and total chlorophyll, alpha-tocopherol, total phenolic content and the antioxidant activity [DPPH center dot (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl) and ABTS(center dot+) (2,2-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline)-6-sulfonic acid) radical scavenging] were determined at 6 month-intervals. Olive leaf addition induced a significant increase in total chlorophyll, alpha-tocopherol, total phenolic content, and antioxidant activities in both years (P < 0.001). During the storage period antioxidant content and antioxidant activities in the oils significantly decreased in both years (P < 0.001). However, the oils to which leaf material was added had higher antioxidant contents and activities than those without leaf material addition at the end of the 18-month storage period. After storage, the antioxidant content and DPPH center dot radical scavenging activity of control (0 %) samples were lower than those in the leaf added samples (3 %). The data obtained from this study suggested that the addition of olive leaf to oils allowed more functional olive oils with higher antioxidant contents.
