The natural compounds which are present in vegetable oils were investigated by absorption and three-dimensional fluorescence spectroscopy. It was found that some of these components could be used as internal markers for identification and quantitative analysis of vegetable oils. The presence of specific fluorophores permits to develop an individual fluorescent "finger-print" criteria for all the studied oils, which can be used for detection of product falsification.
