Abstract
In this study six sucrose esters (SEs) with varying mono-ester content, and thus varying hydrophilic-to-lipophilic balance (HLB) were studied. Wide- and small-angle X-ray scattering (WAXS and SAXS) was performed in order to unravel the nanoscale assembly of SEs. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) allowed to identify the melting and crystallization peaks of the different SEs, which could be attributed to the low and high esterified sugar molecules. Moreover, the results show clear differences in melting and crystallization behavior based on the type of fatty acid chains present. WAXS analysis unraveled a hexagonal subcell for all studied SEs. Despite some difficulty in identifying low intensity SAXS peaks, the analysis suggests a cubic structure for low HLB esters and a lamellar packing for high HLB esters. Medium HLB esters are hypothesized to contain a combination of the aforementioned structures.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of the American Oil Chemists’ Society (JAOCS) is an international peer-reviewed journal that publishes significant original scientific research and technological advances on fats, oils, oilseed proteins, and related materials through original research articles, invited reviews, short communications, and letters to the editor. We seek to publish reports that will significantly advance scientific understanding through hypothesis driven research, innovations, and important new information pertaining to analysis, properties, processing, products, and applications of these food and industrial resources. Breakthroughs in food science and technology, biotechnology (including genomics, biomechanisms, biocatalysis and bioprocessing), and industrial products and applications are particularly appropriate.
JAOCS also considers reports on the lipid composition of new, unique, and traditional sources of lipids that definitively address a research hypothesis and advances scientific understanding. However, the genus and species of the source must be verified by appropriate means of classification. In addition, the GPS location of the harvested materials and seed or vegetative samples should be deposited in an accredited germplasm repository. Compositional data suitable for Original Research Articles must embody replicated estimate of tissue constituents, such as oil, protein, carbohydrate, fatty acid, phospholipid, tocopherol, sterol, and carotenoid compositions. Other components unique to the specific plant or animal source may be reported. Furthermore, lipid composition papers should incorporate elements of yeartoyear, environmental, and/ or cultivar variations through use of appropriate statistical analyses.
