Abstract: | Fresh commercial corn oil, fresh commercial lard, and hydrogenated vegetable shortening were analyzed for carbonyl compounds
before and after deep frying. The frying was carried out in an apparatus with a capacity for 2000 g of oil designed to quantitatively
trap the volatile materials evolved during frying and which would ordinarily escape into the atmosphere. The trapped distillate
was also subjected to carbonyl analysis.
Analysis of the fats and distillates showed a carbonyl pattern in essential agreement with the classical autoxidation mechanism
for the different fats, i.e., the typical alkanals, alk-2-enals, and alk-2,4-dienals. The pattern correlated generally with
the fatty acid composition of the fats. Comparison of the concentrations of the monocarbonyl compounds in the fats before
and after frying, and in their distillates, indicated that the deodorization process which accompanies frying is effective
in preventing the accumulation of the more volatile compounds formed. The less volatile products, mainly deca-2,4-dienal,
were not efficiently removed. Accordingly, it was observed that the oils containing higher proportions of linoleic acid contained
more residual monocarbonyl compounds after frying.
