The concentration of oleocanthal in freshly pressed EVOO and its subsequent waste was analysed at early, mid and late season harvests. Oleocanthal concentrations were quantified using high-performance liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry. In oil, oleocanthal concentration was as follows: 123.24 ± 6.48 mg kg¯¹1 in early harvest, 114.20 ± 17.42 mg kg¯¹ in mid harvest and 152.22 ± 10.54 mg kg¯¹ in late harvest. Its concentration in waste was determined to be: 128.25 ± 11.33 mg kg¯¹ in early harvest, 112.15 ± 1.51mg kg¯¹ in mid harvest and 62.35 ± 8.00 mg kg¯¹ in late harvest. Overall, olive pomace waste is a valuable source of oleocanthal.
