5.2.2 Storage
The oxidative and chemical changes in oils during storage are characterized by an increase in free fatty acid contents and a decrease in the total unsaturation of oils (Perkin, 1992). A study reported lipid oxidation levels in food emulsions are generally accelerated as storage temperature is increased (Martinez et al., 2013).
When PUFAs are exposed to environmental factors such as air, light and temperature, oxidation reactions produce undesirable flavors, rancid odors, discoloration and other forms of spoilage. The primary autoxidation products are hydroperoxides, that have no taste and flavor, but their degradation products (aldehydes, ketones) are very potent taste and flavor modifiers ( Frankel, 2005). When it was stored

5.2.3 Oxidation of Cooking Oil
Lipid oxidation can be influenced by a several factors such as fatty acid composition, the abundant of oxygen concentration and the increasing of temperature which able to rise up the rate of oxidation. Lipids in edible oils are easily to autooxidise and photooxidise. In addition, the oxidation of oil also affects by oil processing, heat, light, transition metals and antioxidants. However, heat is an important factor to speed up the oxidation process.
Lipids and triacylglycerol are naturally occurred compounds in oils and fats. The chemical composition contains saturated and unsaturated fatty acids and glycerides. Edible oils is an important component of our daily diet, that give energy, essential fatty acids and supply as a carrier of fat soluble vitamins For example, mustard oil had provided 30% of protein, calcium, phytins, phenolics and natural anti-oxidants. Besides, mustard oil has a high sum of mono-unsaturated fatty acids and a good ratio of polyunsaturated fatty acids, which is good for the heart (Zahir et al.,
Table 6 shows the results of the biochemical tests. The isolate can obtain its energy by means of aerobic respiration but not fermentation. In the Oxidation-Fermentation test, a yellow color change was produced only under both aerobic conditions, indicating that the EI can oxidize glucose to produce acidic products. In addition to glucose, the EI can also utilize lactose and sucrose, and this deduction is based on the fact that the color of the test medium broth changed to yellow in all three Phenol Red Broth tests. These results are further supported by the results of the Triple Sugar Iron Agar test. Although the EI does perform fermentation of these three carbohydrates, it appears that this bacterium cannot perform mixed acid fermentation nor 2,3-butanediol fermentation due to the lack of color change in Methyl Red and Vogues-Proskauer
Esters are defined as molecules consisting of a carbonyl group which is adjacent to an ether linkage. They are polar molecules which are less polar than alcohols but more so than ethers, due to their degree of hydrogen bonding ability. Most often derived from reacting an alcohol with a carboxylic acid, esters are a unique, ubiquitous class of compounds with many useful applications in both natural and industrial processes 1. For example, within mammals, esters are used in triglycerides and other lipids as they are the main functional group attacking fatty acids to the glycerol chain 2. A unique property of esters is their tendency to give off distinct aromas such as the scent of apples (Ethyl caprylate) and bananas (Isoamyl acetate). This is of a unique importance especially in industries that utilize flavors and aromas such as the tobacco, candy and alcohol industry. Consistent research is conducted in order to enhance and increase the effectiveness of esters in these products 3.
To uncover organic compounds like carbohydrates, lipids, proteins and nucleic acid, by using tests like Benedict, Lugol, Biuret and Beta Carotene. Each test was used to determine the presents of different organic molecules in substances. The substances that were tested for in each unknown sample were sugars, starches, fats, and oils. Moreover, carbohydrates are divided into two categories, simple and complex sugars. Additionally, for nonreducing sugars, according to Stanley R. Benedict, the bond is broken only by high heat to make make the molecules have a free aldehydes (Benedict). As for Lipids, there are two categories saturated and unsaturated fats. One of the difference is that saturated fats are mostly solids and have no double bond (Campbell Biology 73). The Beta Carotene test works by dissolving in a lipid, thus giving it color to make it visible. Moreover, proteins are made out of amino acids that are linked by a polypeptide bond (Campbell Biology 75). The purpose of this experiment was to determine whether an unknown class sample or food sample had any carbohydrates, lipids, or proteins in it. The expected result of the lab was that some substances would be present while other would be absent.
Sesame seed oil: This oil is packed with B-complex vitamins, which is essential if you have an autoimmune or chronic disease that could impact the levels of vitamin B in your body. Vitamin B is essential for optimal health. It is also very high in the antioxidant vitamin E, which plays a part in the prevention of heart disease and
...nerated and replaced by fat. Recently, specific compounds in the oil have been identified, they produce regeneration that is even more amazing than that produced by the oil itself. (Gerras, 1056)

Transformer oil is organic and therefore oxidizes and decays; creating oxidation by-products which destroy the paper insulation. The aging of transformer oil is caused by the oxidation process of the oil; therefore, c...
Fatty acids such as linoleic acid, linolenic acid and arachidonic acid are known as essential fatty acid because they cannot be synthesized in the body so must be supplied in the food. Human being lacks the ability to introduce double bonds in fatty acids beyond carbons 9 & 10. About 20 different fatty acids are synthesized from the two essential fatty acids linoleic acid and linolenic acid. Omega three fatty acid is synthesized from linolenic acid and omega six fatty acid is synthesized from linolic acid.
The way metabolic syndrome is related to nutrition is because this condition can lead to strokes, heart attacks and more severe conditions that can lead to death if you do not take care of your body. Carbohydrate consumption has been a factor for weight gain, obesity, diabetes, and a number of other diseases. High-fiber diets are also factors that can lead to several metabolic disorders such as hypertension, diabetes, obesity, as well as heart disease and colon cancer. Fat is a general term used to refer to oils, and the consumption of unsaturated fats, derived mostly from vegetable oils such as safflower, corn, olive and soybean oil, may be able to prevent serious disorders, such as hypertension a...
Factors such as changes in crystal formation when fat is melted and the extent of solid fat at room temperature determine characteristics such as hardness or fluidity. By using DSC to understand the relationship of fat melting and solid fat content, it is possible to investigate characteristics such as creaminess and spread ability. Furthermore, this method is also very useful for product development and quality evaluations by measuring the crystal structure and different melting behaviors. Thus, further work and investigation on the thermal analysis of other types of fats present in food products such as lard, stick margarine, cheese spread, mayonnaise and others should be conducted and compared to allow the improvements to be done on food products for the efforts of manufacture high-quality products in the
Law, Abu Bakar, Mat Hashim, and Abdul Hamid (2011) concluded that fermentation is one of the oldest and widely used food preservation methods in households, small-scale food industries as well as in large enterprise. Fermented foods generally preserved pleasant flavor, aroma, texture, enhanced nutritive values and good keeping quality under ambient conditions. (p.1)
There are many more lipids than I have mentioned in my research paper, there are over a 100 know lipids. Lipids are very important for our body and cells and they carry out many function. They provide nutrients for our body. Lipids are a category of nutrients. Lipids consist of fats, oils, and waxes and are very important for are body’s health. Lipids are important for the human body because they are for storing energy, they’re good at storing energy because they can concentrate a group of calories in a smaller area. Lipids are also used to make soaps, detergents and waxes. These are things that we use in every day life.
Food Preservatives are added to food to reduce the decomposition period. Although some food preservatives are naturally found in some of Earths fruits, vegetables, and beans, many food preservatives are man-made chemicals and toxins to extend the life of food to an unnatural level. MedX India researched on how “Substances that are added to food items in order to inhibit, retard, or arres...
Acrolein is the simplest unsaturated aldehyde that produced widely but is most often immediately reacted with other products due to its instability and toxicity. When a fat is heated strongly in the presence of a dehydrating agent such as potassium bisulfate (KHSO), the glycerol portion of the molecule is dehydrated to form the unsaturated aldehyde, acrolein which has the odour peculiar to burnt cooking grease. Further heating results in polymerization of acrolein, which is indicated by the slight blackening of the reaction mixture. In practical 8.4, corn oil, olive oil, full cream milk and ground nut show positive test with both the rancid burnt grease smell and the black colour sample formed that indicate the presence of glycerol or fat. Only rice shows negative test with un-rancid caramel-like smell and the formation of little black solid. Student are strictly have to be extra careful when heating the sample such as using the test tube holder to hold the test tube and not by bare
Food Preservation is the ways to retain the food quality in a longer times. It is to prevent the food decomposition and fermentation. Besides that, food preservation not only to prevent the food getting spoilt in a long period of time but also preserved the colour, taste and the food nutritive value. Nowadays, food preservation has become more and more important component in the food industry as the consumers expect that able to purchase those foods that are out of season or imported from other countries. Furthermore, there are few reason why food preservation is important in our daily life such as preservation foods when they are in season it may added variety choices in our meals for example smoke meats and
