ABSTRACT

The evidences about the cardioprotective effects of omega-3 fatty acids (n-3 FA), especially EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid), have increased the consumption of these fatty acids. Echium plantagineum is a plant from Boragenacea family, known as potential source of non-marine omega-3 fatty acids (n-3 FA). Echium seeds presents 12-16% of stearidonic acid (SDA), that can be converted to EPA and DHA at a more elevated rate than the conversion obtained from α-linolenic acid (ALA), present in several other vegetable oils. However, echium oil is highly susceptible to oxidation because it has a high proportion of polyunsaturated fatty acids. Thus, the objective of this study was to combine three natural strategies to inhibit the oxidative damage in echium oil. In the first step, a mixture containing hydrophilic (HM: synaptic + ascorbic + citric acids) or lipophilic (LM: α-tocopherol + ascorbyl palmitate + citric acid) antioxidants was applied in the flaxseed oil, kept at 40oC/ 15 days. The oxidative markers were compared with the oil added of TBHQ (120 ppm) and EDTA (75 ppm), both artificial compounds. The results showed that LM and HM had an oxidative protection similar to the artificial antioxidants and that, HM promoted a better protection than LM. Based on this result, HM was selected as a strategy to be applied in the next step. In the second part of this study, Echium oil was obtained by two process: continuous screew pressing (PRESS) and extraction using hexane (SOLV). Both samples were added of HM combined with a high oleic sunflower oil and kept at different temperatures during storage. Two conditions were analyzed: 6 months into sealed flasks and 30 days into opened flasks. Oxidation reaction was followed by measuring the concentration of hydroperoxide, malondialdehyde, tocopherol and volatile compounds. In general, results showed that temperature reduction was enough to keep the oils stability during storage. Thus, the focus of the strategy's combination was directed toward samples after exposition to oxygen. In this context, better results were obtained by blending 20% of high oleic sunflower oil and the hydrophilic antioxidant mixture (500 ppm of synaptic acid, 250 ppm of ascorbic acid and 150 ppm of citric acid). In this condition it was observed 37-41% reduction in the hydroperoxide values and 40-75% in the malondialdehyde concentration in the samples prepared according to the optimized condition, when compared with the standard conditions by which the oil is currently extracted and processed


As evidências do efeito cardioprotetor dos ácidos graxos ômega 3 (AG n-3), principalmente do ácido eicosapentenoico (EPA) e docosahexaenoico (DHA), tem aumentado o consumo desses ácidos graxos. Echium plantagineum é uma planta da família Boragenacea, conhecida como uma fonte potencial AG n-3 de origem não marinha. As sementes de Echium apresentam 12-16% de ácido estearidônico (SDA), que pode ser convertido em EPA e DHA a uma maior taxa que a obtida através do consumo do ácido alfa linolênico (ALA), presente em diversos óleos vegetais. Porém, o óleo de echium é extremamente suscetível à oxidação, por ter um alto teor de ácidos graxos poli-insaturados. Portanto, o objetivo desse estudo foi combinar três estratégias naturais para inibir a oxidação no óleo de echium. Na primeira parte do estudo, misturas contendo antioxidantes hidrofílicos (HM: ácido sinápico + ácido ascórbico + ácido cítrico) ou lipofílicos (LM: alfa-tocoferol + palmitado de ascobila + ácido cítrico) foram aplicados no óleo de linhaça, e mantidos a 40oC por 15 dias. Os marcadores de oxidação foram comparados com óleo de linhaça no qual foram adicionados compostos artificiais: TBHQ (120 ppm) e EDTA (75 ppm). Os resultados mostraram que LM e HM apresentaram uma proteção antioxidante similar ao efeito apresentado pelos compostos artificiais, e que a mistura HM promoveu uma melhor proteção antioxidante que a mistura LM. A partir desse resultado, a mistura HM foi selecionada como estratégia a ser aplicada na etapa seguinte. Assim, na segunda parte do estudo, o óleo de echium foi obtido por dois processos de extração: prensagem mecânica continua (PRESS) e extração usando hexano (SOLV). A mistura HM e o óleo de girassol alto oleico foram selecionados como estratégias antioxidantes, além da redução de temperatura de estocagem. Duas condições foram analisadas: 6 meses em frascos fechados e 30 dias em frascos abertos. A oxidação foi quantificada através da determinação das concentrações de hidroperóxido, malonaldeído, tocoferol e compostos voláteis. No geral, os resultados mostraram que a redução de temperatura foi suficiente para manter a estabilidade do óleo durante o estoque. Portanto, objetivou-se combinar estratégias para aumentar a estabilidade oxidativa das amostras expostas ao oxigênio. Neste contexto, os melhores resultados foram obtidos quando 20% de óleo de girassol alto oleico foi combinado com a mistura hidrofílica de antioxidantes naturais (500 ppm de ácido sinápico, 250 ppm de ácido ascórbico e 150 ppm de ácido cítrico). Nessa condição, foi observada uma redução de 37-41% nos valores de hidroperóxidos e 40-75% na concentração de malonaldeído, quando comparado com a condição padrão

ABSTRACT

As gorduras ricas em ácidos graxos saturados e/ou trans são ingredientes que brindam propriedades nos alimentos como textura, fusão e estabilidade. Porém, a relação entre seu consumo e enfermidades cardiovasculares, força a busca de novas alternativas. Uma alternativa potencial são os oleogéis, pois são um material plástico e com melhor balanço lipídico, do ponto de vista nutricional. Os oleogéis são sistemas coloidais onde uma fase orgânica líquida, representada por um óleo, é imobilizada por uma rede sólida tridimensional formada por agentes estruturantes. Atualmente, tem sido estudados oleogéis conformados com variados agentes estruturantes, com o intuito de encontrar a melhor opção. Além disso, alguns estudos indicam que o uso combinado de dois ou mais agentes estruturantes pode resultar no aumento de seu potencial de estruturação de óleos ou na possibilidade de customizar as propriedades adequadas para produção alimentar. Assim, o objetivo deste estudo é avaliar a interação entre os componentes de oleogéis preparados com óleo de girassol alto oleico (HOSO), como base lipídica, e combinações de cera de candelilla (CW) e monoestearato de sorbitana (SMS), como agentes estruturantes. A avaliação dos oleogéis por meio dos diagramas de fases e a consistência, mostrou que há uma sinergia entre os componentes, na concentração de 8 e 4% de agentes estruturantes e 79-89% de cera de candelilla. Estes oleogéis mistos tiveram uma faixa de fusão maior do que os oleogéis não mistos. Sugerindo a construição de cristais mais estáveis, que demoraram mais tempo em fundir. A capacidade de retenção de óleo se mostrou adequada (99%) nas amostras contendo mais de 1% de agentes estruturantes e com mais de 40% de Cera de Candelilla. Nas imagens obtidas por PLM, foi observada uma variedade de tamanho de cristais, sugerindo que cada componente do oleogel formou um tipo de cristal. Com a elaboração de bigéis, foi notado que, para obter um produto satisfatoriamente espalhável ou para observar o aumento de sua consistência em comparação com o oleogel isoladamente, é necessária uma concentração maior do que 4% de agentes estruturantes no oleogel e/ou a adição de menos de 20% de água na formulação total. A estabilidade dos bigéis foi beneficiada pela goma xantana e pela mistura de 2:1 de goma xantana e goma guar na concentração de 0,3%. Dessa forma, o desenvolvimento de alimentos com teores reduzidos de gorduras saturadas e ao mesmo tempo livres de gorduras trans se faz possível com a formulação de oleogéis, o que poderá contribuir para melhorar a qualidade nutricional dos alimentos industrializados oferecidos à população


Fats rich in saturated and / or trans fatty acids provide properties in food such as texture, fusion and stability. But, since those fats increase cardiovascular disease risk, alternatives have been searched. A potential alternative is oleogels, as they are a plastic material with better lipid balance from a nutritional point of view. Oleogels are colloidal systems where a liquid organic phase, represented by an oil, is immobilized by a three-dimensional solid network formed by structuring agents. Currently, oleogels conformed with various structuring agents have been studied in order to find the best option. In addition, some studies indicate that the combined use of two or more structuring agents may result in increased oil structuring potential or the possibility of customizing the properties suitable for food production. Thus, the aim of this study is to evaluate the interaction between the components of oleogels prepared with high oleic sunflower oil (HOSO) as a lipid base and combinations of candelilla wax (CW) and sorbitan monostearate (SMS) as structuring agents. The evaluation of oleogels by phase diagrams and consistency (Yield value) showed that there is a synergy between the components, in the concentration of 8 and 4% of structuring agents and 79-89% of candelilla wax. These mixed oleogels had a higher melting range than unmixed oleogels. Suggesting the construction of more stable crystals, which took longer to fuse. Oil binding capacity was adequate (99%) in samples containing more than 1% of structuring agents and over 40% of candelilla wax. In the PLM images, a variety of crystal sizes were observed, suggesting that each oleogel component formed a crystal type. With the elaboration of bigels, it was noted that in order to obtain a satisfactorily spreadable product or to observe the increase of its consistency compared to the oleogel alone, a concentration greater than 4% of structuring agents in the oleogel and / or the addition of less than 20% water in the total formulation. The stability of the bigels was benefited by xanthan gum and the 2: 1 mixture of xanthan gum and guar gum at a concentration of 0.3%.Thus, the development of foods with reduced levels of saturated fat and at the same time free of trans fats is possible with the formulation of oleogels, which may contribute to improve the nutritional quality of processed foods offered to the population

ABSTRACT

Introducción: dado que el aceite de girasol alto oleico (AGAO) es una alternativa viable, ampliamente utilizada, planteamos el agregado de fitoesteroles o aceite de pescado como una nueva estrategia nutricional que logre posicionar al AGAO como una fuente de lípidos saludable. Objetivos: evaluar el efecto del enriquecimiento de AGAO con fitoesteroles (AGAO-F) naturales o suplementación con aceite de pescado (AGAO-n3) sobre el perfil lipídico-lipoproteico, la grasa corporal total y la masa ósea, en un modelo experimental de hipercolesterolemia nutricional (HCN) en crecimiento y analizar el beneficio de dicho enriquecimiento/suplementación en relación al aceite de oliva extra virgen (AO). Materiales y métodos: 48 ratas Wistar macho al destete recibieron por tres semanas (T3) una dieta aterogénica rica en grasa saturada (GS) y col para inducir HCN. A T3 se midió la colesterolemia (col-T) y se dividieron en cuatro grupos. Por cinco semanas (T8), se reemplazó GS por AGAO o AGAO-F o AGAO-n3 o AO. Las dietas se administraron ad libitum y se registró zoometría y consumo (kcal/100g peso corporal/día). A T8 se evaluaron: índice hepatosomático (IH, %), col-T, colnoHDL, col-HDL y TG séricos (mg/dL), % grasa corporal total y distribución, densidad (DMOg/cm2 ) y contenido mineral óseo (CMO,g) de esqueleto total (DPX). Resultados: sin diferencias en peso (g), longitud (cm), consumo e IH. AGAO-F mejoró todos los lípidos séricos. AGAO-n3 mostró menores niveles de col-T, col-noHDL (p=0,000); no de TG. Sin diferencias en grasa corporal y CMO; AGAO-n3: menor porcentaje de grasa intestinal (p=0,003) y DMO (p=0,03). Respecto a AO: AGAO-F y AGAO-n3 mejoraron el perfil-lipídico y AGAO-n3 < grasa intestinal. Conclusiones: en relación a AGAO y AO, AGAO-F y AGAOn3 disminuyeron el riesgo cardiometabólico. En relación a la masa ósea, el agregado de fitoesteroles o aceite de pescado no logró en el tiempo estudiado reducir el riesgo de osteopenia/ osteoporosis impuesto por la HCN.


Introduction: our previous studies demonstrated that the replacement of saturated fat by MUFA rich-diets ameliorated some of the alterations induced by saturated fat. Since high oleic sunflower oil (HOSO) constitutes an important source of MUFA and widely distributed in human nutrition, a supplementation of HOSO may prevent osteopenia and cardiovascular risk improving the biochemical profile. Objectives: the effects of replacing dietary saturated fat, by different ω-9MUFA sources supplemented with natural sterols or fish oil, on serum lipoprotein profile, body fat and distribution, bone mineral content and density in growing hypercholesterolemic rats, were studied. Materials and methods: forty eight Wistar rats (aged=21days) were fed "ad libitum" with an atherogenic diet, rich in saturated fat and cholesterol for 3 weeks, to induce hypercholesterolemia. Then, rats were randomly assigned to one of 4 groups, according to the source of oil replacing saturated fat: extra virgin olive oil (OO); HOSO, HOSO plus phytosterols (HOSO-P) or HOSO plus fish-oil (HOSO-F) for 5 weeks. After 3 weeks, zoometrics and diet consumption were recorded; hepatic index (HI), serum lipids, body fat content and distribution, bone mass content (BMC) and density (BMD), were assessed. Results: groups showed no significant differences in zoometrics, diet consumption and HI (p>0,05). HOSO-P rats showed a reduction in T-Chol and nonHDL-Chol and the lowest TG levels; HOSO-F showed lower T-chol and non HDL-chol levels (p=0,000), but not TG. Total body fat and BMC were not different among groups. HOSO-F rats showed the lowest intestinal fat content (p=0,003) and BMD (p=0,03). When compared to OO, HOSO-P and HOSO-F improved serum lipids and additionally, HOSO-F showed a reduction in intestinal fat. Conclusions: The replacement of saturated fat rich-diet by HOSO supplemented with phytosterols or fish oil induces bene- ficial effects on serum lipids and cardiovascular disease. However, they could not prevent the detrimental effects on bone.
