Can this be determined and has it been done? If determination is possible and the value is high, it would spark interest in the matter.

I doubt very much that it's been measured. ORAC isn't very biologically relevant, and has kind of fallen out of favor, except for marketing purposes. The type of radicals formed in the ORAC procedure might not be representative of in vivo ROS.

Here are some c60 ORAC measurements, but not in olive oil...

The ORAC measurement should be done on actualy C60oo, then we could compare the number to blueberries, pomegranates and chaga-mushrooms. How much would such a test cost and I wonder if any of the manufacturers (SV?) would be interested in finding out what the ORAC-value of their product was..?
