Sivakanthan S, Fawzia S, Mundree S, Madhujith T, Karim A. Investigation of the influence of minor components and fatty acid profile of oil on properties of beeswax and stearic acid-based oleogels. Food Res Int 2024; 184:114213. [PMID: 38609212 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodres.2024.114213] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/09/2023] [Revised: 02/20/2024] [Accepted: 03/10/2024] [Indexed: 04/14/2024]
Abstract
Understanding the impact of minor components and the fatty acid profile of oil on oleogel properties is essential for optimizing their characteristics. Considering the scarcity of literature addressing this aspect, this study aimed to explore the correlation between these factors and the properties of beeswax and stearic acid-based oleogels derived from rice bran oil and sesame oil. Minor oil components were modified by stripping the oil, heating the oil with water, and adding β-sitosterol. Oleogels were then prepared using a mixture of beeswax and stearic acid (3:1, w/w) at a concentration of 11.74 % (w/w). The properties of oils and oleogels were evaluated. The findings indicated that minor components and fatty acid composition of the oils substantially influence the oleogel properties. Removing minor components by stripping resulted in smaller and less uniformly distributed crystals and less oil binding capacity compared to the oleogels prepared from untreated oils. A moderate amount of minor components exhibited a significant influence on oleogel properties. The addition of β-sitosterol did not show any influence on oleogel properties except for the oleogel made from untreated oil blend added with β-sitosterol which had more uniform crystals in the microstructure and demonstrated better rheological stability when stored at 5 °C for two months. The oil composition did not show any influence on the thermal and molecular properties of oleogels. Consequently, the oleogel formulation derived from the untreated oil blend enriched with β-sitosterol was identified as the optimal formula for subsequent development. The findings of this study suggest that the physical and mechanical properties as well as the oxidative stability of beeswax and stearic acid-based oleogels are significantly affected by the minor constituents and fatty acid composition of the oil. Moreover, it demonstrates that the properties of oleogels can be tailored by modifying oil composition by blending different oils.

Abstract
The industrial processing of mandarin fruits yields a large amount of peel waste, resulting in economic losses and environmental pollution. The peels of mandarin fruits are a good source of biomass and active substances that can be used to produce food packaging systems. In this study, active food packaging films were prepared based on sodium alginate and twelve varieties of mandarin peel powder. The structures, properties, and corn oil packaging performance of the films were compared. Results showed that the twelve varieties of mandarin peel powder differed in pectin, lipid, protein, crude fiber, and total phenol contents. The prepared films all exhibited a yellow color, 117.73-152.45 μm thickness, 16.39-23.62% moisture content, 26.03-90.75° water contact angle, 5.38-8.31 × 10-11 g m-1 s-1 Pa-1 water vapor permeability, 5.26-12.91 × 10-20 m2 s-1 Pa-1 oxygen permeability, 4.87-7.90 MPa tensile strength, and 13.37-24.62% elongation at break. Notably, the films containing mandarin peel powder with high pectin and lipid contents showed high moisture/oxygen barrier ability and mechanical properties. The films containing mandarin peel powder with high total phenol content exhibited high antioxidant- and antimicrobial-releasing abilities and good performance in delaying corn oil oxidation. Overall, the results suggested that the films have good application potential in active food packaging.

Abstract
Omega-3 fatty acids (omega-3 FAs) have been widely recognized for their therapeutic advantages, including anti-inflammatory and cardioprotective properties. They have shown promise in enhancing regulatory function, promotingdevelopment and mitigating the progression of diabetes and cancer. The scientific communities, along with industries, are actively endorsing initiatives aimed at increasing the daily intake of lipids rich in omega-3 FAs. Nevertheless, incorporating polyunsaturated FAs (PUFAs) into food products poses several challenges due to their susceptibility to oxidation when exposed to oxygen, high temperatures, and moisture. This oxidative deterioration results in undesirable flavours and a loss of nutritional value. Various methods, including physical blending, interesterification, and encapsulation, have been utilized as ways to enhance the stability of edible oils rich in PUFA against oxidation. Encapsulation has emerged as a proven strategy for enhancing the oxidative stability and functional properties of omega-3 FA-rich oils. Multiple encapsulation methods have been developed to stabilize and improve the delivery of omega-3 FAs in food products. The selection of an appropriate encapsulation method depends on the desired application of the encapsulated oil. In addition, encapsulation enhances the bioavailability of omega-3 FAs by promoting increased absorption of the encapsulated form in the intestinal epithelium. This review discusses the techniques and principles of omega-3 FA-rich oil encapsulation and its role in improving stability and bioavailability. Furthermore, it also investigates the potential health benefits of these encapsulated oils. This review explores the variations in bioavailability based on encapsulation techniques and processing, offering vital insights for nutrition and product development.

Abstract
In this present study, an oil press was used to process 200 g each of sesame, pumpkin, flax, milk thistle, hemp and cumin oilseeds in order to evaluate the amount of oil yield, seedcake, sediments and material losses (oil and sediments). Sesame produced the highest oil yield at 30.60 ± 1.69%, followed by flax (27.73 ± 0.52%), hemp (20.31 ± 0.11%), milk thistle (14.46 ± 0.51%) and pumpkin (13.37 ± 0.35%). Cumin seeds produced the lowest oil yield at 3.46 ± 0.15%. The percentage of sediments in the oil, seedcake and material losses for sesame were 5.15 ± 0.09%, 60.99 ± 0.04% and 3.27 ± 1.56%. Sediments in the oil decreased over longer storage periods, thereby increasing the percentage oil yield. Pumpkin oil had the highest peroxide value at 18.45 ± 0.53 meq O2/kg oil, an acid value of 11.21 ± 0.24 mg KOH/g oil, free fatty acid content of 5.60 ± 0.12 mg KOH/g oil and iodine value of 14.49 ± 0.16 g l/100 g. The univariate ANOVA of the quality parameters against the oilseed type was statistically significant (p-value < 0.05), except for the iodine value, which was not statistically significant (p-value > 0.05). Future studies should analyze the temperature generation, oil recovery efficiency, percentage of residual oil in the seedcake and specific energy consumption of different oilseeds processed using small-large scale presses.

Abstract
Plant oils contain a high content of unsaturated fatty acids. Studies of food products have revealed a considerable disproportion in the ratio of ω6 to ω3. This article presents information on the healthful qualities of eight new oil blends that contain a beneficial proportion of ω6 to ω3 fatty acids (5:1), as well as their degradation during heating at 170 and 200 °C. The fatty acid profile was analyzed by gas chromatography (GC), content of polar compounds and polymers of triacylglycerols by liquid chromatography (LC), water content was measured by the Karl Fischer method, and oxidative stability was measured by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and low-field nuclear magnetic resonance (LF NMR) methods. The results showed that during heating, the polar fraction content increased in samples heated at both analyzed temperatures compared to unheated oils. This was mainly due to the polymerization of triacylglycerols forming dimers. In some samples that were heated, particularly those heated to 200 °C, trimers were detected, however, even with the changes that were observed, the polar fraction content of the blends did not go beyond the limit. Despite the high content of unsaturated fatty acids, the analyzed blends of oils are characterized by high oxidative stability, confirmed by thermoanalytical and nuclear magnetic resonance methods. The high nutritional value as well as the oxidative stability of the developed oil blends allow them to be used in the production of food, in particular products that ensure an adequate supply of ω3 fatty acids.

A Comparison of the Stability of Refined Edible Vegetable Oils under Frying Conditions: Multivariate Fingerprinting Approach. Foods 2023; 12:foods12030604.

Abstract
The stability of highly consumed vegetable refined oils after discontinuous frying of potatoes was compared. Both those vegetable oils containing additives and those that did not were considered. Vegetable oil samples were evaluated using refractive index, anisidine and peroxide values, UV absorbance and dielectric constant-based determination of the content of total polar compounds. Chemical changes caused over the frying time were monitored and multivariate modelling of the data was carried out. A new gas chromatographic-mass spectroscopy method was intended to record a fingerprint of both polar and non-polar compound fractions. Multivariate models of chromatographic fingerprints were also developed, and the results obtained from both approaches were verified to be statistically similar. In addition, multivariate modelling also allows to differentiate among vegetable oils according to oxidation performance. Indeed, it was initially observed that olive oils presented the highest natural thermo-oxidative stability compared to other seed oils, although it should be noted that these differences were not significant when regarding olive pomace oils and seed oils containing synthetic additives.

Abstract
The sinami palm (Oenocarpus mapora H. Karst) is a plant from the South American Amazonia that has great potential for industrial applications in the development of functional foods, nutraceuticals and cosmeceuticals. In this manuscript, the physicochemical properties, total polyphenol content and antioxidant activity of sinami oil that was obtained using four extraction systems, namely expeller press extraction (EPE), cold press extraction (CPE), ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE) and supercritical fluid extraction (SFE), were studied and compared. The oxidative stability (OSI) was statistically non-significant in EPE and SFE. The chromatic properties (CIELab) were influenced by the extraction methods and SFE presented high values of L* and a lower content of plant pigments. Ultrasound-assisted extraction showed a higher content of polyphenols and higher antioxidant activity. Different analyses for the evaluation of the physicochemical properties, the content of total polyphenols and antioxidant activity were used to classify sinami oil according to chemometrics using principal component analysis (PCA). For example, the sinami oil that was obtained using each extraction method was in a different part of the plot. In summary, sinami oil is an excellent resource for plant pigments. Additionally, the information that was obtained on the quality parameters in this study provided a good foundation for further studies on the characterization of major and minor compounds.
