{"title":"The effect of the hydrophilic and lipophilic herbal extracts on the oxidative stability of cooking plant oils during low- and high-temperature heating","authors":"Natalia Mikołajczak, Małgorzata Tańska, Iwona Konopka","doi":"10.1016/j.nfs.2021.10.002","DOIUrl":"10.1016/j.nfs.2021.10.002","url":null,"abstract":"<div><h3>Background</h3><p>Recently, the most commonly used cooking oils in the world are obtained from corn germ, soybean, sunflower and rape seeds. Also, refined flaxseed oil is preferred for low-heat cooking in some countries. Use these oils instead of solid fats (including butter, shortening, lard and margarine) and tropical oils (including palm and coconut oil) can be healthy choice, because of lower saturated fat content. Unfortunately, repeated or high-temperature heating may result in oil decompose to form unwanted hazardous substances which can pose harmful effects to the health. The well-known natural method to limit oil oxidation is the used of herbs and spices, which also can improve the taste and aroma properties of food. The aim of the study was to evaluate the effect of added herbal extracts on the oxidative stability of two cooking plant oils (refined rapeseed oil, refined flaxseed oil) during low- and high-temperature heating.</p></div><div><h3>Methods</h3><p>Hydro- and lipophilic extracts were prepared from popular commercial dried herbs (thyme, parsley, caraway, oregano, basil, dill) using 70% methanol and <em>n</em>-hexane, respectively. Cooking plant oils were characterized by quality indices, fatty acid composition and content of bioactive compounds, while in the herbal extracts' composition and content of pigments, total phenolic compounds, flavonoids, tocols and antioxidant capacity were examined. The oxidative stability of cooking plant oils, without and with the addition of herbal extracts, was determined in the Rancimat test at 110 and 150 °C for refined rapeseed oil and 80 and 110 °C for refined flaxseed oil.</p></div><div><h3>Results</h3><p>It was found that the addition of herbal extracts had varied effect on oxidative stability of flaxseed and rapeseed oils at low- and high-temperature heating. Flaxseed oil was generally well-protected by thyme hydro- and lipophilic extracts regardless of temperature heating (induction period increase by 18–24%). Also, hydrophilic parsley and lipophilic oregano extracts improved this oil oxidative stability at low temperature (induction period increase by 10–17%), while lipophilic extracts from caraway and dill were more effective at high temperature (induction period increase by 20–26%). In turn, all extracts improved the rapeseed oil oxidative stability under low-temperature heating (induction period increase by 11–24%), but they were ineffective during high-temperature heating. The better additives for this oil were both type extracts obtained from thyme and oregano, which were characterized by the highest content of antioxidants, total phenolic compounds and tocopherols, mainly α-tocopherol. The results suggest a greater difference in content of phenolic compounds for extracts obtained by using of different solvents then from different herbs. In turn, the herb type had a strong impact on the content of pigments and tocopherols.</p></div><div><h3>Conclusions</h3><p>Results confir","PeriodicalId":19294,"journal":{"name":"NFS Journal","volume":"25 ","pages":"Pages 41-50"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2352364621000250/pdfft?md5=88d4d20accc4267db688f13efad707f9&pid=1-s2.0-S2352364621000250-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46542931","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper aims to associate the nutritional values of those food and drink products advertised between 2011 and 2020 and the use of the “Mediterranean” concept as part of its marketing discursive strategy. To this end, a quantitative and qualitative methodology that included a content analysis of these advertisements was used. To determine the nutritional quality of those food products, the Nutri-Score system was utilized. The main findings concluded that most of the food products and drinks advertised under the concept “Mediterranean” are not included in the nutritional pyramid of the MD. Although some of the MD typical foods have reached a low nutritional food value due to their alteration with ultra-processed ingredients, it has been shown that the product categories, which falsely claim DM, have even a lower nutritional value. The study also pointed out the need for stricter regulation in food and beverage marketing since misleading language can damage consumers' health.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":19294,"journal":{"name":"NFS Journal","volume":"24 ","pages":"Pages 1-6"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/j.nfs.2021.04.003","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43292870","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
