The variables affecting the gravimetric determination of the oxidative stability of oils were evaluated, including the storage temperature, amount of sample and surface area of the sample in contact with atmospheric oxygen, which was varied by using containers of different diameters. Based on this study, we propose the optimal working conditions for development of the oxidation step prior to gravimetric monitoring.
