Abstract
The ability of a fat crystal network to entrap liquid oil is known as oil binding capacity (OBC) and is an imperative property in semi-solid fats for use in confectionary, bakery, and snack products. Understanding the factors that increase the OBC of fats is crucial for developing fat-based foods that are more resistant to unwanted oil migration. In this study, fully hydrogenated palm-kernel based (FHPKO) lipid matrices were crystallized under different processing conditions to generate samples with a wide range of physical properties and OBC. Three dilutions were created by combining FHPKO with soybean oil (SBO)—75% FHPKO (containing 25% SBO), 50% FHPKO (50% SBO), and 20% FHPKO (80% SBO) and were crystallized at 33, 30, and 22°C; respectively. All the samples were crystallized using fast (FCR; 4.6°C/min) and slow (SCR; 0.1°C/min) cooling rates, as well as with (w) and without (wo) high-intensity ultrasound (HIU; 20 kHz). These processing conditions resulted in four different sets of samples—FCR wo HIU, FCR w HIU, SCR wo HIU, SCR w HIU. Immediately after processing, the sample's hardness, solid fat content (SFC), viscoelasticity (G′, G″, δ), microstructure, melting behavior (Tpeak, enthalpy), and OBC using a centrifuge method (labeled OBCc) were analyzed. Samples were then stored at 22 and 5°C for 48 h and the aforementioned properties were measured again as well as OBC using a filter paper method (labeled OBCp). Results show that both OBCc and OBCp were positively correlated with the sample's SFC (rs = 0.912, p < 0.001; rs = 0.777, p < 0.001), storage moduli (G′) (rs = 0.674, p < 0.001; rs = 0.526, p = 0.017), hardness (rs = 0.793, p < 0.001; rs = 0.812, p < 0.001), enthalpy (rs = 0.842, p < 0.001; rs = 0.812, p < 0.001), and the number of crystals (rs = 0.655, p < 0.001; rs = 0.728, p < 0.001); respectively. While no correlation between OBCp and the sample's peak melting temperature and microstructure was recorded, a negative association between the sample's peak melting temperature (rs = −0.782, p < 0.001), phase angle (δ) (rs = −0.801, p < 0.001), and crystal diameter (rs = −0.470, p = 0.004) was documented for OBCc. These results suggest oil binding capacity of palm-kernel based crystallized fats can be increased by formulating harder fats that are elastic, contain more crystals, and have higher SFC and enthalpy. Additionally, the FCR with HIU processing conditions was the most effective in increasing the OBC.
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.
