Effects of association colloidal structures on the oxygen solubility in oil-in-water emulsion matrix.

Although association colloidal structures are believed as major oxidation places, relationship of oxygen molecules with association colloids have not been evaluated in oil-in-water (O/W) emulsion. Oxygen solubility was determined in O/W emulsion containing dispersed phases with different charges of emulsifiers, numbers of dispersed droplets, and surface areas of dispersed droplets. The rates of lipid oxidation were also examined. O/W emulsion made of positively charged emulsifier had higher oxygen solubility than negatively charged and neutral emulsifiers. As number and surface area of oil droplet in O/W emulsion increased, higher oxygen solubility was observed, implying that dispersed phases could be places for oxygen molecules. O/W emulsion made of positively charged emulsifier had higher lipid oxidation than neutral emulsifier. O/W emulsion with more interfaces had lower oxidative stability, implying interfaces of association colloids could affect rates of lipid oxidation. Dispersed phase in O/W emulsion can be places for oxygen molecules.

Microwave resonator can help to predict oxidative stability in C18-based vegetable oils.

Effects of moisture content, degree of oxidation, degree of unsaturation of fatty acid compositions in C18-based edible oils were determined by a microwave resonator in the range of 0-4.4 GHz. Moisture content and degree of oxidation in corn oil made difference in signal intensity at 1.7-1.9 GHz and 1.0-1.2 GHz, respectively without uniform trend in signal intensity. Degree of unsaturation of C18-based edible oils including corn, sesame, soybean, olive, perilla, and flaxseed oils provided difference in 3.0-3.1 GHz with a dependent manner of degree of unsaturation. Average of signal intensity (ASI) in 3.0-3.1 GHz had high correlation (R2 > 0.93) to the degree of unsaturation in edible oils. Oils with high oleic acid had relatively low ASI while those with high linolenic acid had high ASI value. Oxidative stability of C18-based edible oils can be categorized successfully without fatty acid analysis using a microwave resonator.

Changes in acetaldehyde and formaldehyde contents in foods depending on the typical home cooking methods.

Analytical methods were validated for the evaluation of acetaldehyde and formaldehyde, which are harmful chemicals, using solid-phase microextraction-gas chromatography/mass spectrometry in four different matrices. Typical home-cooking methods including boiling, pan-frying, and stir-frying, were applied to beef, rapeseed oil, canned pork ham, egg, and rice wine. In addition, monosaccharides, disaccharides, alanine, and glycine were heated for the formation of both aldehydes. All validation parameters, including accuracy, precision, limit of detection, limit of quantification, and uncertainty, for four different matrices were within recommended ranges, confirming the validity of the current method. Acetaldehyde contents ranged from undetectable to 17.92 µg/g and formaldehyde contents ranged from undetectable to 0.27 µg/g. Generally, boiling decreased both aldehydes except acetaldehyde in egg. Pan- and stir-frying increased both aldehyde content substantially in rapeseed oil whereas pan-frying increased acetaldehyde content in canned pork ham and egg. Fructose and sucrose produced higher content of both aldehydes than maltose and glucose when heated. Depending on food type, the cooking process had slightly different effects on the contents of acetaldehyde and formaldehyde.
