The Effect of Antioxidants on the Stabilization of the Mixture of Hazelnut Oil and Linseed Oil

Abstract

U ovom istraživanju određivana je oksidacijska stabilnost mješavine hladno prešanog lješnjakovog ulja i lanenog ulja u omjeru 50 : 50 sa i bez dodataka prirodnih i sintetskih antioksidanasa te sinergista. Primjenom standardnih metoda, određeni su parametri kvalitete ulja (peroksidni broj, slobodne masne kiseline). Antioksidansi koji su korišteni u ovom radu su ekstrakti nara, ružmarina i kadulje, eterično ulje konopljike, lavande, slatkog pelina, divlje mrkve, smilja, propil galat i mješavina tokoferola te sinergist limunska kiselina. Oksidacijska stabilnost ulja ispitivana je primjenom Oven testa. Rezultati ispitivanja prikazani su vrijednostima peroksidog broja tijekom 4 dana trajanja testa. Primjena ekstrakta ružmarina pokazala je bolju zaštitu mješavine ulja od oksidacije u odnosu na ekstrakt kadulje i nara. Dodatkom eteričnog ulja smilja i lavande postignuta je veća zaštita mješavine hladno prešanog lješnjakovog ulja i lanenog ulja prema oksidacijskom kvarenju. Dodatkom sinergista limunske kiseline, prirodnom antioksidansu ekstraktu ružmarina ostvarena je najveća zaštita mješavine ulja od oksidacijskog kvarenja.In this research was determined oxidation stability of mixture consisted of cold-pressed oil of hazelnut and linseed oil in ratio 50 : 50, with and without natural and synthetic antioxidants and synergists. Using standard methods it was defined oil quality parameter (peroxide number, free fatty acids). Antioxidants that were used in this research are: pomegranate extract, rosmary and sage extract, essential oils of hemp, lavander, sweet wormwood, wild carrot, immortelle, propyl galate, tocopherol mix and syinergistic citric acid. Oil oxidation stability was tested using Oven test. The results of testing are shown in peroxide number value during the 4 days of testing. Use of rosmary extract showed better protection of oil mixture from oxidation in comparison with pomegranate and sage extract. By adding essential oil of immortelle and lavander it was achieved greater protection of mixture consisted of cold-pressed oil of hazelnut and linseed to oxidation degradation. With the addition of synergistic citric acid to natural antioxidant rosemary extract, has been proven the highest protection against oil oxidation
