3-monochoropropane-1, 2-diol (3-MCPD) and 2-monochloropropane-1,3-diol (2-MCPD) and glycidol esters (GE) have been known as food contaminants. These compounds are formed during high-temperature process of different food products such as coffee, edible oils, infant formula, potato based products, bakery products, malt, cooked meats, soy sauces and pickles. In vegetable oils, these compounds are ...

The deodorization of the refined palm oil process is simulated here using ASPEN HYSYS. In the absence of a library molecular distillation (MD) process in ASPEN HYSYS, first, a single flash vessel is considered to represent a falling film MD process which is simulated for a binary system taken from the literature and the model predictions are compared with the published work based on ASPEN PLUS ...

The effect of milk and milk components on the deodorization of diallyl disulfide (DADS), allyl methyl disulfide (AMDS), allyl mercaptan (AM), allyl methyl sulfide (AMS), and methyl mercaptan (MM) in the headspace of garlic as well as in the mouth- and nose-space after garlic ingestion was investigated using selected ion flow tube-mass spectrometry (SIFT-MS). Fat-free and whole milk significantl...

Due to its large number of potential utilizations Jatropha curcas L. (physic nut, purging nut), a tropical plant cultivated in many Latin American, Asian and African countries, has become topic of various research projects. Nutritional as well as technical applications, however, are restricted due to the plant’s toxicity. The seed oil contains phorbol esters, a family of compounds known to caus...

Crude vegetable oils contain triacylglycerols as major component and various minor components such as diacylglycerols, monoacylglycerols, free fatty acids, phospholipids, tocopherols, sterols, squalene, color pigments, waxes, aldehydes, ketones, triterpene alcohols and metals that may affect the quality of the final product. The minor components are removed partially or entirely by either physi...

This study systematically established the most effective refining process for Moringa oleifera (MO) kernel oil. Acid degumming (20.33 ± 1.37 ppm) removed significantly greater phosphorus than water (31.18 0.90 ppm). Neutralization was more deodorization in decreasing acid (0.06 mg KOH/g) and p-Anisidine (p-AV, 0.36 0.03) values of Besides improving its color properties, acid-activated bleaching...

During chemical refining steps (neutralization, bleaching and deodorization) of crude cottonseed oil (CSO), minor and major components, namely, tocopherols, sterols and fatty acids were evaluated by HPLC and GLC. HPLC analysis of total tocopherols (T) revealed that loss in these components were 7.12, 12.28 and 18.47 % in neutralized, bleached and deodorized oil respectively. On the other side, ...

The ability of foods and beverages to reduce allyl methyl disulfide, diallyl disulfide, allyl mercaptan, and allyl methyl sulfide on human breath after consumption of raw garlic was examined. The treatments were consumed immediately following raw garlic consumption for breath measurements, or were blended with garlic prior to headspace measurements. Measurements were done using a selected ion f...
