Since olive leaf is a potential source of phenolic fraction that is assumed to have good antioxidative effects, we purposed to add its extract to the refined olive-pomace oil during heating to increase its oxidative stability. RP-UHPLC-DAD-QTOF-MS was employed to characterize the phenolic fraction.The oil samples were evaluated by measuring the polymers and the polar compounds and thus detecting specific oxidized compounds. Using this approach, the results showed that incorporating olive leaf extract in refined oil significantly reduced the formation of polymers from 14.39% to 10.45% and the oxidation state by the variation of extinction Δ K from 3.02 to 2.29 during 20 h of heating compared to unenriched oil. This study has proven that the use of natural substances is an opportunity to extend the life of refined oils.
