                                According to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, the maximum concentration of active oxygen in refined oil is set at 10 milliequivalents per kilogram (meq/kg). This standard helps define the peroxide value limit in oil, a key indicator of oil freshness and quality, protecting consumers from the effects of oxidation.
