高温油炸薄薯片过程中油的吸收和水分流失间的特性关系

Thin potato crisps (2mm) were fried at 170℃, 180℃ and 190℃ for various times from 10s to 180s inclusive. It was found that definite oil uptake, moisture loss trends exist during the frying process. No significant difference in the oil uptake or moisture loss rates between flat-cut and ridge-cut crisps exists. Also found in this study was that an increased oil temperature promoted higher moisture loss rates. In turn, the higher moisture loss rates contributed to a higher oil uptake rate. It was found, based on the volumetric plots of oil content vs. water content, that the oil uptake rate was proportional to the moisture loss rate. As a result, it has been shown that there is a possibility of having a characteristic curve of oil uptake against moisture content.     

Accumulation of 2-tert-Butyl-1,4-Benzoquinone in Frying Oil and Fried Food during Repeated Deep Fat Frying Processes

2-tert-Butyl-1,4-benzoquinone (TBBQ), the main oxidation product of tert-butyl-hydroquinone (TBHQ) during frying, is cytotoxic and its residual levels in frying oils and foods are unknown. In this study, TBBQ residues have been evaluated during the preparation of french fries. Results showed that frying at 140 °C resulted in the highest TBBQ peak concentration (48.42 mg kg⁻¹) compared with frying at 190 or 170 °C. This unexpected finding can be attributed to more extensive hydrolytic reaction when frying at the lower temperature, generating more peroxyl radicals. TBBQ concentrations proved to be independent of the oil type among various unsaturated oils. However, higher TBBQ levels were observed in saturated palm oil and crude soybean oil than in unsaturated oil or refined oil. Continuous frying leads to the accumulation of a large amount of TBBQ in fried food. After frying 1–5 batches, TBBQ levels in both the frying oil and fries were above 10 mg kg⁻¹, exceeding its critical cytotoxic concentration (IC₅₀ value of 10.71 mg kg⁻¹ for RAW 246.7 cells in our previous study), warranting concern with respect to the safety of fried food. FTIR has been utilized as an effective tool for visually monitoring the degree of oxidation in the frying medium with respect to its hydrogen peroxide level, which contributes to the increased level of TBBQ derived from TBHQ therein.

Oxidative Stability and Changes in Chemical Composition of Extra Virgin Olive Oils After Short‐Term Deep‐Frying of French Fries

We aimed at investigating oxidative stability and changes in fatty acid and tocopherol composition of extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) in comparison with refined seed oils during short‐term deep‐frying of French fries, and changes in the composition of the French fries deep‐fried in EVOO. EVOO samples from Spain, Brazil, and Portugal, and refined seed oils of soybean and sunflower were studied. Oil samples were used for deep‐frying of French fries at 180 °C, for up to 75 min of successive frying. Tocopherol and fatty acid composition were determined in fresh and spent vegetable oils. Tocopherol, fatty acid, and volatile composition (by SPME–GC–MS) were also determined in French fries deep‐fried in EVOO. Oil oxidation was monitored by peroxide, acid, and p‐anisidine values, and by Rancimat after deep‐frying. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) analysis was used as a proxy of the quality of the spent oils. EVOOs presented the lowest degree of oleic and linoleic acids losses, low formation of free fatty acids and carbonyl compounds, and were highly stable after deep‐frying. In addition, oleic acid, tocopherols, and flavor compounds were transferred from EVOO into the French fries. In conclusion, EVOOs were more stable than refined seed oils during short‐term deep‐frying of French fries and also contributed to enhance the nutritional value, and possibly improve the flavor, of the fries prepared in EVOO.     

Formation of 4‐Hydroxy‐2‐Trans‐Nonenal,a Toxic Aldehyde,in Thermally Treated Olive and Sunflower Oils

4‐Hydroxy‐2‐trans‐nonenal (HNE) is a toxic aldehyde produced mostly in oils containing polyunsaturated fatty acid due to heat‐induced lipid peroxidation. The present study examined the effects of the heating time, the degree of unsaturation, and the antioxidant potential on the formation of HNE in two light olive oils (LOO) and two sunflower oils (one high oleic and one regular) at frying temperature. HNE concentrations in these oil samples heated for 0, 1, 3, and 5 hours at 185 °C were measured using high‐performance liquid chromatography. The fatty‐acid distribution and the antioxidant capacity of these four oils were also analyzed. The results showed that all oils had very low HNE concentrations (<0.5 μg g^?1 oil) before heating. After 5 hours of heating at 185 °C, HNE concentrations were increased to 17.98, 25.00, 12.51, and 40.00 μg g^?1 in the two LOO, high‐oleic sunflower oil (HOSO), and regular sunflower oil (RSO), respectively. Extending the heating time increased HNE formation in all oils tested. It is related to their fatty‐acid distributions and antioxidant capacities. RSO, which contained high levels of linoleic acid (59.60%), a precursor for HNE, was more susceptible to degradation and HNE formation than HOSO and LOO, which contained only 6–8% linoleic acid.     

Thermal Decomposition of Partially Hydrogenated Rapeseed Oil During Repeated Frying Traditional and Fast French Fries

The aim of this study was to compare thermal degradation of oil, especially the composition of the polymer in a polar and nonpolar fraction of oil, used for repeated frying of fast and traditional French fries. The French fries were fried using the partially hydrogenated rapeseed oil. Fast French fries were characterized by a half shorter frying time compared to traditional ones. The frying process was done at 170 °C ± 5 °C in 5‐l electric fryers and carried out in 15‐min cycles for 48 hours. The content of thermal decomposition of triacylglycerol (TAG) in both fractions of oil was analyzed by high‐performance size‐exclusion chromatography (HPSEC). In all analyzed samples, thermal decomposition products were found. However, the composition of a polar and nonpolar fraction of oil was not the same. In a nonpolar fraction, only the monomers and hydrolysis products of TAG were observed. In a polar fraction, dimers, trimers, and oligomers of TAG were also found. The shorter time of frying the fast French fries resulted in a lower total and individual polymers content in all steps of analysis compared to the oil used for frying the traditional French fries.     

Frying performance of a sunflower/palm oil blend in comparison with pure palm oil

The aim of this study was to test the performance of a vegetable oil blend formulated as alternative to pure palm oil as frying medium. For this purpose, the evolution of many analytical parameters (free acidity, spectrophotometric indices, total polar components, fatty acid composition, short‐chain fatty acids, tocopherol and tocotrienol content and composition, color, flavor evaluated by means of an electronic nose) of the selected blend (sunflower/palm oil 65 : 35 vol/vol) has been monitored during a prolonged frying process (8 h discontinuous frying without oil replenishment) in comparison to pure palm oil. Sensory attributes of the fried food were also evaluated. The blend proved to keep qualitative parameters comparable to those shown by palm oil during the prolonged frying process. Even if some oxidation indices, such as spectrophotometric indices, short‐chain fatty acids and total polar components, increased faster in the blend, it showed a higher tocopherol content and a lower increment in free fatty acids as compared to pure palm oil. Chips fried in the two oils did not show significantly different sensory profiles.     

Effect of High‐Intensity Ultrasound on the Crystallization Behavior of High‐Stearic High‐Oleic Sunflower Oil Soft Stearin

The objective of this research was to evaluate the effect of high‐intensity ultrasound (HIU) and crystallization temperature (T_c) on the crystallization behavior, melting profile, and elasticity of a soft stearin fraction of high‐stearic high‐oleic sunflower oil. Results showed that HIU can be used to induce and increase the rate of crystallization of the soft stearin with significantly higher SFC values obtained in the sonicated samples, especially at higher T_c. SFC values were fitted using the Avrami model, and higher k_n and lower n values were obtained when samples were crystallized with sonication, suggesting that sonicated samples crystallized faster and through an instantaneous nucleation mechanism. In addition, the crystal morphology, melting behavior, and viscoelasticity were significantly affected by sonication.     

Formation of Polar Compounds During Deep‐frying—Determination by 1H NMR and ESR

The present study aims to elucidate the factors influencing the generation of polar compounds in oils during deep‐frying. Oils with different fatty acid compositions, including palm oil (PO), refined palm kernel oil (RPKO), and refined coconut oil (RCO), are applied in successive frying processes. ¹H NMR spectra reveal that heated PO has a higher percentage of allyl acyl group and is more prone to formation of non‐polar dimeric triglycerides as compared to other types of oils. In addition, electron spin resonance (ESR) spectra indicate that alkyl radicals are more predominant than alkoxy radicals in heated PO. In contrast, RPKO and RCO are inclined to generation of alkoxy radicals during the thermal treatment. The results reveal that oils with high unsaturated fatty acid content are more prone to generation and oxidation of non‐polar dimeric triglycerides. Practical Applications: The change in free radical profile and concentration is one of the indicators of lipid oxidation and polymerization. Alterations in the levels of alkyl and alkoxyl radicals, revealed by ESR, can be used to illustrate the formation of polar compounds in deep‐fried oils with different fatty acid compositions. The percentage of allyl acyl group, revealed by ¹H NMR, can be used to predict the generation of polar compounds. Therefore, this study provides useful information for the development of different methods to reduce polar compound formation in oils during thermal processing depending on the fatty acid composition of different deep‐fried oils.     

Degradation and Nutritional Quality Changes of Oil During Frying

The changes in regular canola oil as affected by frying temperature were studied. French fries were fried intermittently in canola oil that was heated for 7 h daily over seven consecutive days. Thermo-oxidative alterations of the oil heated at 185 ± 5 or 215 ± 5 °C were measured by total polar components (TPC), anisidine value (AV), color components formation, and changes in fatty acid composition and tocopherols. Results showed that TPC, AV, color and trans fatty acid content increased significantly (P < 0.05) as a function of frying temperature and time. The oil polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) decreased in direct proportion to frying temperature and time. After 7 days of frying, the amount of PUFA was reduced by half and the trans isomers contribution increased 2.5 times during frying at 215 °C. Of the parameters assessed, total polar component and color had the highest correlation, with correlation coefficients of 0.9650 and 0.9302 for frying at 215 and 185 °C, respectively. TPC formation correlated inversely with the reduction of tocopherols.     

Rapid Determination of Total Polar Compounds in Frying Oil Using ATR‐FTIR Combined with Extended Partial Least Squares Regression

A method of rapidly determining the total polar compounds (TPCs) in frying oils using attenuated total reflectance‐Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy combined with partial least squares (PLS) regression is developed. Oils of various types and geographic origins are used to ensure that the proposed model is robust. The first derivative spectrum is selected as the spectral processing method. The interval PLS, forward interval PLS, and backward interval PLS algorithms are compared in terms of their performance. A correlation coefficient (R²) of 0.9942, a root mean square error of calibration (RMSEC) of 1.1, a root mean square error of prediction (RMSEP) of 2.30, a residual predictive deviation (RPD) of 4.1, and a limit of detection (LOD) of 1.65% are obtained by the fiPLS33 model with fewer latent variables and a lower spectral interval number. In addition, sub‐models using a single type of oil showed higher performance (R² 0.9957–0.9998, RMSEC 0.12–0.92, RMSEP 0.79–1.58, RPD 4.79–9.64, LOD 0.66–1.26%) than the general model. The TPC models developed are accurate, stable, and adaptable, and they can be used to analyze general frying oil samples quickly, regardless of the oil type, and to analyze samples of specific oil types accurately. Practical applications: The content of TPCs is an important indicator of whether the oil has been overused and whether it will be harmful during the frying process. However, traditional chemical methods are time‐consuming, and they have not been used to determine large‐sized samples. In addition, due to a lack of regional optimization, most studies on determining TPCs with FTIR give unsatisfactory model performance. A general TPC model that incorporates several oil types and regional optimization is expected to improve prediction performance. Therefore, the proposed method represents a rapid and accurate tool for measuring TPCs in edible fats and oils.

Chemical and Sensory Characteristics of Products Fried in High-Oleic,Low-Linolenic Rapeseed Oil

The effects of frying Berlin doughnuts and potato crisps in high-oleic, low-linolenic (HOLL) rapeseed oil were compared to other commonly used oils (i.e., palm olein, high-oleic sunflower oil, or partially hydrogenated oils). The chemical parameters characterizing the oxidative state of the products fried in HOLL were comparable to products being fried in other commonly used oils. The sensory characteristics of potato crisps fried in HOLL rapeseed oil were satisfactory and comparable to products fried in the other oils. Potato crisps were stable under nitrogen atmosphere for 20 weeks as measured by sensory quality scores. However, a storage time of 16 weeks was achieved for products stored under normal atmosphere. The suitability of HOLL rapeseed oil to improve the storage stability of Berlin doughnuts was limited. The sensory quality decreased during storage due to the development of abnormal taste and smell. Changes in the sensory quality were comparable to the results of the partially hydrogenated oils but worse for products fried in palm olein. Nevertheless, HOLL was a good alternative to partially hydrogenated oils as a frying medium.     

Evaluation of medium polarity materials isolated from fried edible oils by RP‐HPLC

Some frying by‐products of medium polarity called medium polarity materials (MPMs) were isolated by reversed‐phase high‐performance liquid chromatography (RP‐HPLC) from three different cooking oils used for frying during the domestic successive deep‐frying of potatoes. The cooking oils investigated were virgin olive oil, sunflower oil and a vegetable shortening oil. The relative RP‐HPLC increments of the MPM fractions showed a significant correlation to the total polar material and to the polymerised triacylglycerol increment. They could be used as a new method for the assessment of fried oil deterioration. The capillary gas chromatography/mass spectrometry analysis revealed two main groups of peaks for the MPM fractions, which are almost identical in the three examined oils. This indicates that the MPM constituents rather result from the triglycerides than from minor constituents of the oils.
