Six sesame oils prepared from Korean and Chinese sesame were oxidized at 40$^{circ}C$ for 16 weeks in a dark place. Effects of oxidative stability on tocopherols of those sesame oils were studied in related to chemical changes in the oils. All oil samples showed that the rate of tocopherol reduction was increased by the storage time. The changes of peroxide value, free fatty acid, carbonyl content were not caused in direct relation to the tocopherols oxidation. The amount of total tocopherol in the Korean sesame oil ranged from 48.7-50.3mg/100g and Chinese seseame oil ranged from 42.4-44.7 mg/100g According to the three individual tocopherols remaining content after 16weeks, ${gamma}$-,${alpha}$-,${eta}$- tocopherol showed 70%, 30%, 20% of initial concentrations in the oils respectively. There was no significant difference between Korean and Chinese sesame oil except the higher total amount of the tocopherol in Korean sesame oil than that of Chinese.
