Zusammenfassung:Minor compounds such as sterols, aliphatic alcohols, tocopherols, and chlorophylls in virgin olive oil from Chemlali cultivar were analyzed during the maturity process. The study concerns oils from the following three different olive growing areas of Tunisia: Sfax, Sidi Bouzid, and Enfidha. Analytical results showed that both the maturity process and the olive provenances influence the evolution of the content of these compounds.
