Summary: | The effect of fatty acid arrangement on triacylglycerols was determined by assessing the stability of mixtures of trioleoylglycerol (consisting of a comparatively stable fatty acid) and linseed oil (containing a high amount of unstable fatty acids in the form of linoleic and linolenic acids) in the ratios of 90:10, 85:15, 80:20, 70:30 and 60:40 (w/w), respectively, before and after enzymatic randomization. Randomization resulted in increased stability; however, increasing the content of the unstable triacylglycerol resulted in a decrease in this effect. Based on these results, it was concluded that randomization of triacylglycerols can have a positive effect on the oxidative stability of an oil if the content of autoxidatively unstable triacylglycerols is low in the original blend. This results in substantial dilution of unstable fatty acids among the more stable triacylglycerols upon randomization. |
