IMPACT OF SURFACE ACTIVE MINOR COMPONENTS ON PHYSICOCHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF ASSOCIATION COLLOIDS AND LIPID OXIDATION IN BULK OIL
Lipid oxidation is a great concern for food manufacturers and consumers as it negatively impacts not only food quality and nutritive values of food lipids, but also consumer health. Lipid oxidation in bulk oil is impacted by chemical factors, such as, prooxidants and antioxidants, and is also related to the existence of physical structures. Bulk oils contain a variety of surface active minor components which are able to form physical structures known as association colloids. These physical structures create oil-water interfaces which seem to be an important site where lipid oxidation occurs in bulk oil. Thus, this research focused on how the surface active minor components in bulk oil impact physical structure formation and oxidative stability in bulk oil. In the first study, the influence of polar lipid oxidation products isolated from used frying oil on the oxidative stability of bulk oils and oil-in-water (O/W) emulsions was investigated. Polar compounds were added to bulk stripped corn oil (with and without reverse micelles formed by dioleoylphosphatidylcholine, DOPC) and O/W emulsion to evaluate their prooxidative activity by following the formation of lipid hydroperoxides and hexanal. Polar compounds increased lipid oxidation in bulk oil with and without DOPC. The presence of DOPC reverse micelles decreased the prooxidant activity of the polar oxidation products. On the other hand, there was no significant effect of the polar compounds on oxidation of O/W emulsions. ix Besides phospholipids, other surface active minor components in commercial oils such as free fatty acids may impact lipid oxidation rates and the physical properties of association colloids. Thus, in the second study, the effects of free fatty acids on changes in the critical micelle concentration (CMC) of DOPC in stripped corn oil were determined by using the 7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquinodimethane (TCNQ) solubilization technique. Different free fatty acids including myristoleic, oleic, elaidic, linoleic and eicosenoic were added at 0.5% by wt along with the DOPC (1-2000 Ξmol/kg oil) into the bulk oils. There was no significant effect of free fatty acids with different chain length, configuration and number of double bonds on the CMC value for DOPC in bulk oil. However, increasing concentrations of oleic acid (0.5, 1, 3 and 5 % by wt) caused the CMC value for DOPC in bulk oils to increase from 400 to 1000 Ξmol/kg oil. Physical properties of DOPC reverse micelles in the presence of free fatty acids in bulk oils were also investigated by the small angle X-ray scattering technique. Results showed that free fatty acid could impact on the reverse micelle structure of DOPC in bulk oils. Moreover, free fatty acid decreased pH inside reverse micelle as confirmed by the NMR studies. The oxidation studies revealed that free fatty acids exhibited prooxidative activity in the presence and absence of DOPC. Different types of free fatty acids had similar prooxidative activity in bulk oil. In the last experiment, multiple surface active minor components including DOPC, dioleoylphosphatidylethanolamine (DOPE), oleic acid, diacylglycerols (DAG) and stigmasterol were incorporated to form nanostructures in stripped corn oil. Individual component significantly decreased the oil-water interfacial tension on which the DOPC and DOPE exhibited the strongest impact. However, the CMC study shows that only DOPC and DOPE could form aggregates at the CMC of 40 and 200 Ξmol/kg oil. The CMC of the mixed components was as low as 20 Ξmol/kg oil. The absence of a component did not significantly change the CMC value. x However, in the absence of DOPC, we were not able to observe the CMC of the mixed components in bulk oil. The NBD-PE probe was used to study the interfacial activity of minor components. The addition of mixed components caused the emission fluorescence intensity increase, suggesting that these components were at the oil-water interface. Again, the absence of a component from the mixture did not significantly change the fluorescence intensity, except when lacking of the DOPC. This indicates that the DOPC plays an important role on association colloid formation. The oxidation study showed that the association colloids formed by adding 100 Ξmol/kg oil of mixed components decreased the oxidative stability of bulk oil. In addition, the impact of mixed minor components at below (10 Ξmol/kg oil) and above their CMC (100 Ξmol/kg oil) on antioxidant activity of ι-tocopherol and Trolox (water soluble derivative of tocopherols) at 10 and 50 Ξmol/kg oil was investigated. The addition of ι-tocopherol and Trolox at 10 Ξmol/kg oil already compensated the prooxidant activity of association colloids. Trolox exhibited stronger antioxidant activity than ι-tocopherol. However, the association colloids did not influence the antioxidative effectiveness of either ι-tocopherol or Trolox in this study. In conclusion, the surface active minor components formed complex association colloids that decreased the oxidative stability of bulk oil. The presence of reverse micelle impacted the physical location of components such as polar lipid substrates, thus influenced their prooxidant activity. The physicochemical properties of association colloids could change according to the composition of minor components presenting at the oil-water interface. For example, the addition of free fatty acids extended the CMC and altered the pH of the water core of DOPC reverse micelles. The combination of multiple surface active components physically and chemically impacted the oxidative stability and activity of antioxidants in bulk oil. This research xi demonstrates what happens in real commercial oils which are complicated and could provide an idea of how to protect the oil from lipid oxidation

The medicinal herbs that nourish blood and body from the upper Northeastern of Thailand used in this study included Erycibe paniculata Roxb., Gnetum macrostachyum. Hook. f., Bauhinia sirindhorniae K. Larsen & S. S. Larsen, Knema angustifolia Roxb Warb., Ventilago denticulata Willd., Melastoma malabathricum L., Strychnos axillaris Colebr., Caesalpinia sappan L., Ochna integerrima Lour Merr., and Osyris sp. The results showed that most of the ethanolic herbs extracts contained flavonoids and terpenes. In addition, alkaloids, anthraquinone, coumarin, saponin and tannin were found in some extracts. However, there was no steroids and cardiac glycoside found in the extracts. The extracts of Ventilago denticulata Willd., Bauhinia sirindhorniae K. Larsen & S. S. Larsen, Caesalpinia sappan L., and Osyris sp. showed relatively high antioxidant activity determined by DPPH assay with the value of 147.03 Âą 2.72, 127.30 Âą 0.99, 104.94 Âą 3.84 and 73.72 Âą1.46 mg AE/g crude extract, respectively. This is related to the high content of total phenolic compounds in these extracts. Interestingly, all the extracts, except the extract of Erycibe paniculata Roxb., had significantly (p < 0.05) higher alpha-glucosidase inhibitory activity than acarbose. Thus, the traditional blood and body nourishing herbs are good sources of antioxidants and could be further developed to foods or drugs for diabetes prevention
In Vitro Rumen Fermentation of Coconut, Sugar Palm, and Durian Peel Silages, Prepared with Selected Additives
Understanding the nutritive values of fruit peel residues could expand our feed atlas in sustaining livestock production systems. This study aimed to investigate the effects of lactic acid bacteria (LAB), cellulase enzyme, molasses, and their combinations on the fermentation quality and in vitro digestibility of coconut peel (CCP), sugar palm peel (SPP), and durian peel (DRP) silage. The CCP, SPP, and DRP were ensiled in a small-scale silo without additive (control), and with LAB strain TH14 (TH14), molasses, or Acremonium cellulase (AC) using a small-scale silage preparation technique according to a completely randomized design. All fresh peels had sufficient factors for ensiling such as moisture content (78â83%), water-soluble carbohydrates (WSC, 4.20â4.61% dry matter (DM)), and epiphytic LAB population (104â105 colony-forming units (cfu)/g fresh matter (FM)). However, aerobic bacteria counts were high (107â109 cfu/g FM). The fiber content of these fruit peels was high, with lignin abundances ranging from 9.1â21.8% DM and crude protein was low (2.7â5.4% DM). After ensiling, the pH values of the silage were optimal (âĪ4.25) and lower (p < 0.01) for SPP silage. The addition of molasses+TH14, molasses+AC, and molasses+TH14+AC has the potential to enhance fermentation characteristics and improve chemical composition. Silages treated with molasses alone improved the in vitro digestibility of tropical fruit peels. The residue of tropical fruits has the potential to be used as an alternative feed source for ruminants. Adding molasses, TH14, and AC during silage preparation could improve its nutritive value and digestibility
