Table 5.

Effect of crude viscera oil (CVO) extraction temperature (60 and 80 °C) on the quality of refined viscera oil (RVO), as determined by peroxide value: PV; ρ-anisidine: ρ-AV; thiobarbituric acid reactive substances: TBARS; total oxidation value: TOTOX; phospholipids; % free fatty acid: %FFA. Commercial cod liver oil was used as the control oil (CO).
