Calcium Absorption in Rats Consuming Olive Oil or Sunflower Oil Unused or Used in Frying

Olive and sunflower oils were used in repeated potato‐frying operations without turnover until the oils reached the 25% polar compound limit allowed by law. During a 28‐d period, 5 groups of rats were fed diets containing 8% of unused olive oil, olive oil used in 48 and 69 potato‐frying operations, unused sunflower oil, and sunflower oil used to fry potatoes 48 times. No significant differences in food intake, body weight, and food efficiency was observed. The 2 sunflower oil diets increased calcium absorption efficiency without modifying calcium balance, urinary calcium, blood‐serum calcium, and calcium in the carcasses. Intake of oils used in frying did not induce any significant changes. Sunflower oil enhanced calcium bioavailiability slightly, but oil used for frying did not produce any additional effect.     

A Comparative Study of Stability of Extra Virgin Olive Oil,Virgin Coconut Oil and Grape Seed Oil against Domestic Deep Frying

The aim of this study was to evaluate the relative stability of extra virgin olive oil （EVOO）, virgin coconut oil （VCO） and grape seed oil （GSO） against domestic deep frying. Oil samples were subjected to deep frying at 190 ℃ for 30, 60, and 90 min and then compared with fresh oil samples in terms of fatty acid composition, peroxide value （PV）, p-anisidine value （p-AV）, total oxidation value （TOTOX）, iodine value （IV）, free fatty acid content （%FFA） and total phenolic content （TPC）. Experimental results showed that the changes in the fatty acid composition, p-AV and TOTOX were in the order, GSO 〉 EVOO 〉 VCO throughout the experiment, while PV was in the order, VCO 〉 EVO0 〉 GSO. Meanwhile, the reduction in the IV was in the order, GSO 〉 VCO 〉 EVOO throughout the experiment. On the other hand, the changes in the %FFA were in the order, VCO 〉 GSO 〉 EVO0 throughout the experiment. VCO had the greatest stability against domestic deep frying, followed by EVO0 and GSO had the least stability against domestics deep frying.     

Aroma Characterization of Virgin Olive Oil from Two Turkish Olive Varieties by SPME/GC/MS

Virgin olive oil samples of Ayvalik and Memecik olive varieties from the Aegean region of Turkey were evaluated for their acidity, peroxide, and color values, and the volatile compounds were investigated by using solid phasemicro extraction/gas chromatography/mass spectroscopy (SPME/GC/MS). The acidity of all the samples were found to be between 0.35–1.0% oleic acid and peroxide values of the oil samples ranged between 14–52 meq/O₂ kg of oil. The Y, R, and B values of the samples were between 70–73.60, 1.30–4.70, and 0–3.60, respectively. The SPME/GC/MS results have shown that hexanal (5.66–15.48%), 3 hexen 1 ol (3.12–12.1%), cis 3 hexenol (6.15–13.49%), and 9 octadecenoic acid (5.99-16.01%) were observed as the characteristic volatiles for Ayvalik variety, while trans 2 hexanal (8.65–38.09%) and 3 hexen 1 ol acetate (0.97–7.43%) were observed as the characteristic volatiles for Memecik variety.     

Healthy Virgin Olive Oil: A Matter of Bitterness

Virgin olive oil (VOO) is the pillar fat of Mediterranean diet. It is made from olive fruits and obtained by squeezing olives without any solvent extraction. Respect to the seed oils, an unique polar polyphenol-rich fraction gives VOO a bitter and pungent taste.

The recent substantiation by European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) of a health claim for VOO polyphenols may represent an efficient stimulus to get the maximum health benefit from one of the most valuable traditional product of Mediterranean countries educating consumers to the relationship between the VOO bitterness and its health effect.

Agronomical practices and new processing technology to avoid phenolic oxidation and hydrolysis and to enhance the aromatic components of the VOO have been developed and they can be used to modulate taste and flavor to diversify the products on the market. VOOs having high concentration of phenol compounds are bitter and pungent therefore many people do not consume them, thus loosing the health benefits related to their intake.

In this paper, the chemist's and nutritionist's point of view has been considered to address possible strategies to overcome the existing gap between the quality perceived by consumer and that established by expert tasters. Educational campaigns emphasizing the bitter-health link for olive oils should be developed.     

Design of Plastic Bottles for Packaging of Virgin Olive Oil

ABSTRACT: In this work the performance of traditional plastic containers and that of 2 innovative materials containing an oxygen scavenger is evaluated by simulating the behavior of bottled virgin olive oil by means of a mathematical model able to predict the evolution of the profile of hydroperoxide and oxygen concentration inside bottled virgin olive oil. The model was successfully validated by comparing the model prediction with the experimental data. The results obtained show that it is possible to obtain a quality decay kinetic slower than that obtained for olive oil bottled in glass containers by either using an oxygen scavenger or reducing the concentration of oxygen dissolved in the oil prior to bottling.     

Authentication of Extra Virgin Olive Oil from Sesame Oil Using FTIR Spectroscopy and Gas Chromatography

The presence of sesame oil in extra virgin olive oil has been investigated using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and gas chromatography. Frequencies of 1207–1018, 1517–1222, and 3050–2927 cm^?1 were chosen for quantification of sesame oil in extra virgin olive oil. Using Fourier transform infrared normal spectra coupled with a partial least square model, the root mean standard error of calibration and root mean standard error of prediction obtained were relatively low, i.e., 0.331 and 1.01% (vol/vol), respectively. Using fatty acid profiles as determined by gas chromatography, the levels of palmitic and oleic acids were decreased linearly with R² of 0.969 and 0.934, meanwhile the levels of stearic and linoleic acids were increased with R² of 0.930 and 0.959, respectively, with the increasing levels of sesame oil. From level 10% sesame oil (vol/vol), all these fatty acids are significantly different (p < 0.05).

Isolation and Characterization of Virgin Olive Oil Phenolic Compounds by HPLC/UV and GC-MS

ABSTRACT This research examined the phenolic fraction of extra virgin olive oil samples from Lianolia variety olives grown in the region of Preveza, Greece. Phenolic compounds were extracted from oil samples, separated by reversed‐phase high‐performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), and characterized by gas chromatography‐mass spectrometry (GC‐MS). Both simple and complex phenols were detected with the latter being the most abundant. 3–4‐Dihydroxyphenyl ethanol (hydroxytyrosol) and p‐hydroxyphenylethanol (tyrosol) predominated among the simple phenols. Complex phenolic compounds were further separated by preparative HPLC and analyzed by GC‐MS before and after hydrolysis. The presence of hydroxytyrosol and tyrosol derivatives was confirmed. Both derivatives were always present in greater quantities and made up an average exceeding 70% in all samples analyzed.     

Ferric Ions Reduce the Antioxidant Activity of the Phenolic Fraction of Virgin Olive Oil

ABSTRACT: The antioxidant activity of relatively polar extracts from virgin olive oil was investigated in sunflower oil stripped of tocopherols and in tocopherol-stripped sunflower oil-in-water emulsions. The extracts were found to be effective as antioxidants in both media in the absence of added metal ions. However, the antioxidant activity was markedly reduced by the presence of added ferric chloride. In sunflower oil-in-water emulsions (pH 5.4) containing ferric chloride, all concentrations of olive oil polyphenols exhibited pro-oxidant effects. It appears that the reducing action of olive oil polyphenols accelerates oxidation of oil and especially of emulsions containing Fe (III) by reducing ferric ions to ferrous ions, which are effective pro-oxidants during storage.

Oil Uptake in Deep Fat Frying as Affected by Porosity

The porosity of a restructured potato product ranged from 0.089 to 0.168 after fluctuating subfreezing storage temperatures. A linear relation was found between oil uptake during frying and porosity prior to frying. Bulk and particle density, and porosity were monitored for up to 5 min during deep-fat frying. Particle density increased gradually, bulk density decreased and porosity increased noticeably. After an initial short period, oil uptake correlated linearly with porosity of the fried product. A new term, “net porosity” which excluded the void volume occupied by oil was developed for describing the oil uptake mechanism.     

Comparative Study and Quality Evaluation of Italian Focaccias Seasoned with Extra Virgin Olive Oil

An extra virgin olive oil was used as seasoning for three different types of focaccia produced on an industrial scale. This oil and samples of the oil extracted from the focaccias after baking were submitted to routine analyses and to silica gel column chromatography to separate polar compounds. These were then subjected to high performance size-exclusion chromatographic (HPSEC) analysis and it allowed to determine oxidative and hydrolytic degradation products. The results were compared with those obtained from artisan focaccias, seasoned with the same oil and toppings, by statistical analyses. The different technologies and the toppings employed directed in different ways the oxidative and hydrolytic processes in the oil.     

Lipoxygenase: Optimization of Extraction and Evaluation of its Contribution to Virgin Olive Oil Aroma

The volatile compounds responsible for the pleasant aroma of virgin olive oil are mainly derived from products of the lipoxygenase pathway. Lipoxygenase activity was assessed in olive pulp extracts. An optimization of its extraction by a 2⁴ experimental design was performed. Four parameters considered as influencing the extraction were optimised using minimum and maximum levels. The polyvinylpolypyrrolidone quantity seemed to be the more influencing parameter, followed by ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid concentration, pH value, and dithiothreitol concentration. To establish whether the levels of lipoxygenase activity correspond to the enhancement of olive oil aroma, we investigated the addition of soybean lipoxygenase extracts during malaxation. Volatile profiles analysis showed that lipoxygenase had a potential effect on the production of green and fruity note of olive oil.
