Frying Fats and Oil Analysis

This document discusses using FT-NIR spectroscopy to monitor the degradation of frying oils by measuring key quality parameters. Researchers analyzed over 300 oil samples from various food industries to develop calibration models relating FT-NIR spectra to standard lab tests for acid value, anisidine value, total polar components, and polymerized triglycerides. The results showed FT-NIR can simultaneously and accurately determine these important quality metrics, making it a valuable tool for ensuring food safety and quality during deep frying operations.

FT-NIR Monitoring of Frying Fats and Oils

Application Note N288

Frying is today a well established, cost effective and fast method of


food preparation. However, frying fats and oils, used continuously and Monitor the most important
repeatedly at high temperatures, are subject to a series of degradation parameters of oil oxidation and
polymerization:
processes. Increasing amounts of free fatty acids, total polar components,
and polymerized triacylglycerols indicate oil degradation leading to a ‚ Acid Value (AV)
deterioration of the sensory quality and to potential health issues. ‚ Anisidine Value (AnV)
‚ Total Polar Components (TPC)
FT-NIR spectroscopy is a fast and economic method to assess the ‚ Polymerized Triacylglycerols (DPTG)
quality of deep-frying oil with regards to its key parameters describing
all aspects of the fat degradation.

Bruker teamed up with several food control bodies to collect more This was acknowledged by the DGF who
than 300 samples including oils and fats used for frying chips, crisps, issued the Standard Method „FT-NIR
fish, chicken and donuts. The analyzed samples covered the whole Spectroscopy: Screening analysis of used
range of fat degradation and composition. The reference analysis frying fats and oils for rapid determination
was carried out with the recommended standard procedures of the of polar compounds, polymerized
German Society of Fat Sciences (DGF). triacylglycerols, acid value and anisidine value
[DGF CVI 21a (13)].“ in September 2013.
The samples were filled in 8mm glass vials and analyzed with a
Bruker FT-NIR spectrometer in transmission at a resolution of 8 cm -1,
coadding 32 spectra.

Calibration Results:
ƒ AV 0.1 - 7.0 ± 0.26
ƒ AnV 0.1 - 177.9± 6.2
ƒ TPC 3.0 - 46.0 ± 1.9 %
ƒ DPTG 0.0 - 31.3 ± 1.3 %

The statistical evaluation indicates that the measured FT-NIR spectra


show strong correlations with the official lab methods. The fact that
the most important parameters of oxidation and polymerization can
be determined simultaneously makes FT-NIR a valuable tool for food
quality assurance and for health authorities to check the degree of
degradation.
