Introduction Lipids • The term lipid is used to denote fats and fatlikesubstances and is synonymous with the terms lipoids or lipins. • It includes a great varieties. The main component is triglycerides(>95%), others include phospholipids, wax, fatty acids, cholesterin etc. • Lipids are usually defined as food components that are insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents. • Essential structural component of living cells (along with proteins and carbohydrates). 5) exist in the free form(such as fats or oil),or associated ( combined with carbohydrates,or protein in food).
Characteristics of lipids • Insoluble in water, but soluble in organic solvents , such as ethyl oxide(乙醚),petroleum ether(石油醚), chloroform(氯仿),acetone (丙酮). • Most of lipids contain ester bond, and main section is fatty acid ester. • Be produced by organism, and can be used by organism(different from mineral oil). • Except the phospholipids(磷脂), sphingomyelin(鞘磷脂), etc.
Function of lipids in foods 1.Provide caloric. 2. Provide essential fatty acids(linolenic acid亚麻酸, linoleic acid亚油酸) 3.Carrier of fat-soluble vitamin(VE,VA,VD) 4. Provide glossy appearance, smooth taste. 5. Provide savory in the fry food. Lipids content is one of indexes of evaluating food quality , and food nutrition, food processing and storage.
Determination of fats in food • Soxhlet extractor method • Extraction of crude fats ethyl ether in acid(酸性乙醚提取法) • Extraction of crude fats by ethyl ether in Alkali (碱性乙醚提取法)(罗兹-哥特里法) • Babcock Method and Gerber method(巴布科氏法和盖勃氏法) • Extraction of fats by Chloroform-Methanol (氯仿-甲醇抽提法)
索氏提取法 Principle 蒸去溶剂 样品 粗脂肪 乙醚或石油醚
Procedure: 1)Preparation of sample: Solid sample –grinding Semi-solid sample or liquid sample– adding sand– dried—grinding 2) Preparation of filter paper tube 3) Put sample ready into the filter paper tube. 4) Extract the fats with solvents 5) Weighting 6) Calculation
Attention • Crude fats include : phospholipids, pigments,wax, volatile oil, etc. • Sample should contain greater amount of free fats, little associated fats. • Samples should be dried(decrease the efficiency, increase nonfat substance) • If more dextrin or saccharide is included in sample, it should be remove by water • Ethyl ether should be purified: no water, no peroxide, no alcohol. • It should be heated in water bath, be careful of firing.
Determination of fats in food Soxhlet extractor method Principle Distill sample Ethyl ether or Petroleum ether Crude fat
Extraction of crude fats ethyl ether in acid(酸性乙醚提取法) Principle: • sample +HCl +H2O released associated fats to exist in the free form. • Hydrolyzed sample +ethanol +ethyl ether +petroleum ether Crude fats • Recycle solvents, and weight Hydrolysis by heating Extract
Procedure • Sample preparation • Hydrolysis heating at 70-80℃ in a water bath for 40-50min • Extract ethanol , ethyl ether, petroleum ether, • Weighting • Calculating
Attention: • sample without high saccharides and phospholipids • Sample include: liquid sample, semi-solid sample, sample difficult to be dried, and sample that can not to be analyzed by soxhlet extractor. • It can determine the associated fats in foods. • ethanol can make protein precipitated, retard emulsion, promote fats together, and solute carbonhydrates. • Addition of petroleum ether can decrease the solubiltiy of ethanol in ethyl ether, and favorable for phase separation.
Extraction of crude fats by ethyl ether in alkali(碱性乙醚提取法)(罗兹-哥特里法) Principle Hydrolysis • Sample + NH3.H2O+ ethanol Released associated fats in foods extract • Hydrolyzed sample +ethyl ether +petroleum ether fats • Recycle solvents, dried, and weighting
Procedure • Adding NH3.H2O into sample, mixed, and heated for 5min in a 60℃ water bath. • Adding ethanol to reaction system, mixed and cooled. • Extraction with ethyl ether and petroleum ether. • Recycle solvents ,dried at 100-105℃, and weighting,.
Attention • The method is used in the determination of fats in the milk product • NH3.H2O can destroy the colloidal medium(胶体介质)and the membrane of fat globule(脂肪球). • ethanol can make protein precipitated, and retard emulsion, and solute the alcohol –soluble substances. • Addition of petroleum ether can decrease the solubiltiy of ethanol in ethyl ether, and favorable for phase separation
Babcock Method and Gerber method(巴布科氏法和盖勃氏法) Principle: Milk product +concentrated H2SO4 solute nonfat components in milk, destroy the member of fat globule and emulsion, release fats adipose layer was seperated record the volume of fats Heat and centrifugate
Attention • Control the concentration of H2SO4, if it is too high , the milk will be carbonized, if it is too low, the fat globule can not be destroyed completely. • Sample without high saccharides and chocolate.
Extraction of fats by Chloroform-Methanol (氯仿-甲醇抽提法) Principle Chloroform-Methanol filter associated fats Free fats Sample extract Recycle solvents,adding petroleum ether Distill the petroleum ether, weighting
Attention • Suitable for sample with high associated fats, especially phospholipids. Such as fish,eggs, meat etc. • for dried sample, some water should be added.
Fractionation of extracted lipids TLC : one of the main analytical tools in lipid research and analysis. Column Chromatography:if silicic acid column was selected,Neutral lipids, such as hydrocarbons, glycerides, sterols, and sterol esters, are eluted with chloroform, the remaining polar lipids are eluted with methanol. GC: fatty acid compositions in the oils and fats HPLC: different components in the mixed lipids
