Our findings revealed that MF emulsions possessed a distinct advantage, with a droplet size and distribution that promoted exceptional oxidative stability, evidenced by a sustained reduction in oxidative markers and enhanced retention of bioactive components, including EPA and DHA, and the potent antioxidant astaxanthin. In contrast, HPH yielded larger and less uniform particles, correlating with diminished stability. The in vitro digestion studies underscored the superior bioaccessibility of MF emulsions, with a pronounced release of free fatty acids during the intestinal phase, indicative of an optimized digestion and absorption process due to the smaller droplet size of the emulsions. The study's insights advocate for the adoption of microfluidization in the food industry for the development of advanced delivery systems for <i>n</i>-3 fatty acids, particularly in the context of KO-based products. The technique shows promise in enhancing the quality, stability, and bioavailability of these products, which are rich in health-promoting lipids.

In this study, single factor optimization experiments were carried out for hydrolysis and esterification respectively. Using Lipozyme® RM IM as catalyst, the maximum percent of C-oil hydrolysis reached 87.14% at the reaction temperature of 60°C, reaction time of 24 h, water content of 30% and enzyme addition amount of 4%.

The high content of DAG was obtained by a coupled method, which eliminated the purification steps and reduced production costs. C-oil and C-DAG have been characterized by GC, TG, DSC, and GC-IMS. Our results showed that the enzymatic coupling method did not affect the structural of the substances, but did affect the crystallization and melting properties of the oils. Moreover, the taste of C-DAG was more delicate than C-oil. Finally, the reaction mechanism was analyzed using FTIR spectroscopy, revealing that C-oil was primarily hydrolyzed into free fatty acids.

The fresh fragrance is mainly brought by aldehydes, ketones, esters, alcohols and other substances produced by fat oxidation. The pungent fragrance is mainly caused by thiocyanates and isothiocyanates produced by the degradation of glucosinolates. Roasting aroma is usually brought by pyrazines and furans produced by Maillard reaction. Both the composition of the rapeseed and the processing techniques employed are critical in shaping these flavor components. An optimal processing temperature for HFRO is around 150°C. Rapeseed varieties with higher glucosinolates content are preferred for producing oils with a pronounced spicy, whereas those with lower glucosinolates levels are suitable for a stronger roasted aroma. The moisture content of the rapeseed should ideally be maintained between 10% and 15% to optimize flavor development.

Leguminous ferritins exhibit unique structural features, including diverse subunit composition and an extension peptide, which contribute to superior thermal stability compared to animal ferritins. The high iron content, remarkable effectiveness, low risk of oxidative damage and thermal stability make the leguminous ferritin an attractive candidate for iron supplementation. Moreover, apoferritin is an excellent nanosized carrier for encapsulating bioactive compounds due to its inherent inner cavity, water solubility, biocompatibility, and reversible self-assembly behavior. However, the harsh condition during encapsulation by unmodified ferritins may cause damage to sensitive bioactive compounds. Thus, different processing methods are employed to alter the leguminous ferritin structures, including chemical, enzymatic, mild heat treatments, and nonthermal processing to achieve gentler encapsulation conditions for a wide range of bioactive compounds. Another challenge is to improve the stability of leguminous ferritin to withstand gastric digestion. The degradation of ferritin by proteases may lead to premature release of bioactive compounds. Recent works demonstrated that certain phenolic compounds such as proanthocyanidin-induced protein association, thereby enhancing digestive stability of ferritins, leading to a sustained release and a potentially greater bioavailability of bioactive compounds. Leguminous ferritin also has the potential to serve as a stabilizer for the Pickering emulsion, where the hydrophilic and hydrophobic compounds can be encapsulated in the ferritin nanocages and oil phase, respectively. The release and absorption of bioactive compounds in encapsulates and emulsions will need to be further demonstrated through in vivo studies.</p>","PeriodicalId":17182,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the American Oil Chemists Society","volume":"101 10","pages":"1043-1063"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2024-06-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/aocs.12869","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142435833","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

One of the main disadvantages of biodiesel is its poor oxidative stability, which is caused by the presence of high concentrations of unsaturated FAME. When stored in fuel terminals, vehicle tanks and fuel systems, biodiesel can react with oxygen in ambient air, causing it to degrade, which can adversely affect its viscosity and ignition quality. The shelf-life (SL) of biodiesel is an important property that defines how long it can be stored at low temperatures. The objective of this work is to develop reliable mathematical models to estimate the SL of biodiesel at T = 25°C (298.15 K). This was done by measuring oxidation induction period with a Rancimat instrument (IP<sub>R</sub>) at variable temperatures. The data were analyzed by linear regression to determine ln(IP<sub>R</sub>) as a function of T (<b>Model A</b>) and T<sup>−1</sup> (<b>Model B</b>) for canola, palm and soybean oil FAME (CaME, PME and SME), methyl oleate (MeC18:1) and methyl linoleate (MeC18:2).
