Change in zinc permeability of lipid bilayers as a function of fluidity and oxidationTelles, Scott Gerard January 1997 (has links)
The main goal in my project was find out if the rate of zinc crossing the bilayer was either due to the fluidity of vesicles or the level of oxidation of the vesicles.To measure the oxidation a simple procedure called the TBA Test was used to measure each PC tested. The fluidity measurement was a calculation using the temperature the vesicles went from gel to liquid crystalline phase and the experimental temperature.Measuring the rate at which zinc crossed the bilayer was done using spectral changes that occur as zinc binds with APIII, a metal chelator entrapped inside the vesicles. To measure these rates we used k', the rate constant at which zinc is crossing the bilayer at a certain concentration and k, the second order diffusion rate constant which is the slope of k' vs. [Zn].The rates at which zinc was crossing the bilayer for each PC was then compared to the fluidity and oxidation levels for each PC. There was no direct correlation between the rates and fluidity but there was a good linear correlation between the rates and oxidation.So it seemed as if oxidation was the main reason zinc was crossing the bilayer so we wanted to see if our measurements could be obtained by biological cells. The comparison showed that rates obtained by biological cells can only be matched by the vesicle models when there oxidation levels are found to be high.In conclusion we believe that the reason zinc is crossing the bilayer is due to oxidation that occurs to the vesicle and as oxidation increases so do the rates at which zinc crosses the bilayer. / Department of Chemistry

Fatty acid composition, colour stability and lipid oxidation of mince produced from fresh and frozen/thawed fallow deer meatChido, Chakanya January 2016 (has links)
The aim of the study was to determine the fatty acid composition, colour stability and lipid oxidation of fresh mince produced from fallow deer and to evaluate the effect of frozen storage duration on the retail display shelf life of the mince. A total of 31 fallow deer carcasses were used in the study. After cooling for 24hrs, the carcasses were deboned, external fat from the fore and hindquarter muscles removed and individually vacuum packed. For the first trial, seven fallow deer carcasses were used. Meat from the hind and fore-quarters of each carcass was divided into two equal batches per animal. One batch was minced (through a 5 mm die) and packed into oxygen permeable overwraps and refrigerated at 4°C for a period of eight days under retail display conditions. The second batch was vacuum packed and frozen at -20°C for 2 months at the end of which mince was also produced and monitored over an eight-day period under the same conditions that were used for the fresh mince. Colour, pH, lipid and myoglobin stability was determined. Proximate and fatty acid composition was also determined. No differences (P>0.05) were noted between proximate composition of fresh and frozen/thawed minced meat. The lipid content of fallow deer was 2.4 percent (±0.04). Total n3 fatty acids differed (P<0.05) between treatments and decreased with increased storage and display day. There were significant (P<0.05) treatment and time interactions on all measured colour parameters, TBARS and myoglobin forms. Fresh mince was lighter and had higher redness (a*) and yellowness (b*) values than mince from two months frozen stored meat. Hue angle for fresh mince remained stable throughout display whereas it increased for frozen/thawed mince. Fresh mince had lower TBARS values than frozen/thawed mince. Minced meat produced from frozen/thawed deer meat had higher surface met-myoglobin and total met-myoglobin percentages. Surface and total oxy-myoglobin percentage was higher in fresh mince. The first trial clearly showed colour and lipid stability differences between fresh mince and mince from frozen/thawed meat. It also showed that fresh mince has a longer retail display life than mince produced from frozen/thawed meat (six days and four days, respectively). In the second trial, the effects of frozen storage duration on colour and lipid stability were investigated. Twenty-four fallow deer were used. Twelve were harvested in June (6male 6female) and the other twelve in August (6 male 6female) of the same year.Twenty four hours after harvesting, the fore and hindquarter muscles of the carcasses were deboned, vacuum packed and kept at -20°C until October (i.e. 2months and 4months frozen storage period). Upon thawing, the meat was processed into mince following the same procedure used for the first trialand displayed for a fiveday period under retail display conditions. Frozen duration and gender had no effect (P>0.05) on the proximate composition of fallow deer meat. The total amount of saturated fatty acids (SFA) increased and total amount of poly unsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) decreased as frozen duration and display day increased (P<0.05). Frozen duration affected (P<0.01) lipid oxidation and percentage oxy-myoglobin. Mince pH and all colour parameters (L*, a*, b*,hue and chroma) differed (P<0.05) between treatments on day zero and three. Display day was a significant factor (P<0.05) on all measured parameters. By day three all parameters except pH showed signs of extended oxidation and discolouration as evidenced by reduced redness, decreased colour intensity and high TBARS values. This study showed that prolonged frozen storage negatively affects the colour and lipid stability of meat and increases oxidation of PUFAs during frozen storage. However, the study also suggests that although frozen/thawed meat has a shorter retail display shelf life; the proximate composition of the meat remains unchanged.

Physiochemical, fatty acids, lipid oxidation, sensory characteristics and consumer acceptance of warthog cabanossi produced with pork backfat and fat-tailed sheep backfatMahachi, Leo Nyikadzino January 2017 (has links)
The objective of this study was to determine the effect of different fat inclusion levels and fat types on the physical and chemical attributes, lipid oxidation, fatty acid composition and sensory characteristics of warthog cabanossi. To achieve this, three types of cabanossi with different pork backfat levels (10 percent, 20 percent and 30 percent) were produced for the first experiment. The results from the study showed that different inclusion levels of pork backfat had an influence (P ≤ 0.05) on the physicochemical and fatty acid composition of warthog cabanossi but did not influence lipid oxidation (P > 0.05). The highest (P ≤0.05) pH, weight and moisture decline was observed in the 10 percent pork backfat cabanossi compared to the 20 percent and 30 percent treatments. However, no differences (P > 0.05) in the water activity of the product were observed. As expected total fat was lower in the 10 percent fat treatment and increased concomitantly. Similarly, protein, ash and salt were higher in the 10 percent fat cabanossi and decreased concomitantly. Differences in the fatty acid composition were observed between treatments. Furthermore, backfat level affected the sensory attributes and consumer acceptance of the cabanossi. Ten percent backfat cabanossi was scored higher (P ≤0.05) for most sensory attributes. Consequently, it was observed that the consumer panel preferred and scored the 10 percent fat cabanossi higher with regards to appearance and taste. In the second experiment, two cabanossi treatments of different fat types (pork backfat and fat-tailed sheep backfat) were produced. The weight loss, moisture content, pH, water activity and salt content did not differ (P > 0.05) between the two cabanossi products. However, there were differences (P ≤0.05) in the protein, fat and ash contents; where protein and ash were higher in the pork backfat cabanossi whilst fat was higher in the sheep backfat cabanossi. Thiobarbituric reactive substances (TBARS) were similar (P > 0.05) between the two fat types cabanossi which could be explained by similar fatty acid profiles being reported for the two cabanossi although the n-6:n-3 ratio was higher (P ≤0.05) in sheep backfat cabanossi. Results from the descriptive sensory analysis showed two distinct products (P ≤0.01) where pork backfat cabanossi scored higher for most attributes. However, the lower scores for sheep backfat cabanossi were within an acceptable range. Sheep backfat cabanossi were also scored for unique attributes that were not detected in the pork backfat cabanossi. This study concluded that fat-tailed sheep backfat can be used to produce an unique cabanossi product of acceptable quality.

Diffusion of zinc through oxidized lipid bilayersPradhan, Arati S. January 2000 (has links)
Egg phosphatidylcholine was oxidized by atmospheric oxygen under UV light for 16 hours, and the oxidized products formed were fractionated with high-pressure liquid chromatography in reverse phase. Three fractions that appeared at retention times of 19 minutes, 21 minutes and 24 minutes respectively (fraction 19, fraction 21 and fraction 24) were isolated and stabilized by reduction with triphenylphosphine. Zinc diffusion across 1-palmitoyl-2 oleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (POPC) liposome bilayers mixed with the isolated oxidized fractions was measured. The rate constant for zinc diffusion through the POPC liposome was highest in fraction 19 followed by fraction 21 and fraction 24.NMR data suggests that all oxidized fractions were derived from the major egg polyunsaturated PC, 1-palmitoyl-2-linoleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine. The primary oxidized product, fraction 24 contains a mixture of isomers in which the linoleoyl group has formed the 9-hydroxy-10,12-trans-cis diene and trans-trans diene or the 13-hydroxy12,10-trans-cis diene and trans-trans diene. The primary oxidized products on further oxidation, result in secondary oxidized products, contained in fraction 21 and fraction 19.Experimental data indicates that the major components of fraction 21 are the 9-hydroxy12,13-epoxy-l0-trans-monoene (and 13-hydroxy-9,10-epoxy-11-trans-monoene) and the major components of fraction 19 are the 9,12,13-trihydroxy-l0-trans-monoene (and 9,10,13-trihydroxy-1 l-trans-monoene). / Department of Chemistry

A novel and rapid method to monitor the autoxidation of edible oils using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and disposable infrared cards /Russin, Ted Anthony January 2002 (has links)
A novel and rapid method was developed to monitor the autoxidation of edible oils by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy with the use of disposable polymer infrared (PIR) cards having a microporous polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) sample substrate. Under conditions of mild heating (~58°C) and aeration, both model triacylglycerols (TAGS) and edible oils applied onto the PIR cards underwent rapidly accelerated oxidation. In order to compare the oxidative stability of samples on the PIR cards in terms of the time required to reach a peroxide value (PV) of 100 mequiv/kg oil, matching the end-point measured in the standard active oxygen method (AOM), an absorbance slope factor (ASF) was determined to relate changes in hydroperoxide (ROOH) absorbance (peak maximum found within the range of 3500--3200 cm-1 ) to PV. Similar ASF values were found for the four edible oils tested (safflower, canola, sunflower, and extra virgin olive oil), permitting determination of a pooled, universally applicable ASF value of 0.0526 mAbs/PV.

Determination of peroxide value and anisidine value using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopyDubois, Janie January 1995 (has links)
Lipid oxidation has important consequences in the edible oil industry, producing compounds with sensory impact and thus reducing the economic value of the products. This work focused on the development of two Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy methods for the measurement of peroxide value (PV) and anisidine value (AV), representing the primary and secondary oxidation products of edible oils. / The infrared method developed for PV determination was based on a mathematical treatment by the partial least squares method of the information contained in the spectral region between 3750 and 3150 cm$ sp{-1}$. / The second method developed considered aldehyde content and anisidine value, a measure of secondary oxidation products. / The two methods developed are rapid ($ sim$2 min/sample) and have the advantage of being automatable. An infrared system coupled to a computer can collect the spectrum of an oil, analyze it and present a report without the need for personnel trained in FTIR spectroscopy. The cost of such a system would rapidly be absorbed through savings on personnel cost, time and chemical reagents required for conventional chemical methods and as such provides a useful advance in quality control methodology for the edible oils sector.
