Chemical and Molecular Characterization of Crude Oil Obtained by Olive-Pomace Recentrifugation

Table 1

DNA extraction yield and spectrophotometric absorption ratios of crude olive-pomace oil and the corresponding virgin olive oil (mean and standard deviations; n = 6; i.e., 2 replicated oil production trials and 3 independent DNA extractions each). Different superscript letters in the same column indicate significant differences at p < 0.05.

Yield (ng DNA/mg sample)

Crude olive-pomace oil ± 2 ± 0.03 ± 0.05
Virgin olive oil ± 6 ± 0.02 ± 0.04
