Edible oils and fats authentication by Fourier transform Raman spectrometry
نویسندگان
چکیده
The European project FAIR-CT96-5053 concerned the application of the FT-Raman and infrared spectroscopy in food chemistry and quality control. Our research mainly concerned the study of the potential of Raman spectroscopy and the comparison with the results achieved in infrared spectroscopy. The discrimination of virgin olive oil from other edible oils, and the detection and quantification of virgin olive oil adulteration have been experimented with this new technique of fast and non-destructive analysis.

Adulterations in Some Edible Oils and Fats and Their Detection Methods
Vegetable oils and fats have a big contribution in our diet as cooking or frying oil, salad oil or in food products formulation. They are important from nutritional and economical point of views. Their authenticity is a serious issue since old time. Some edible oils and fats such as olive oil, cocoa butter and milk fat are so expensive which makes tempting to adulterate them with other lower pr...

متن کاملDirect monitoring of lipid oxidation in edible oils by Fourier transform Raman spectroscopy.
Fourier transform Raman spectroscopy has been used to investigate the chemical changes taking place during lipid oxidation in several edible oils. Oxidative degradation of six vegetable oils was accelerated by heating at 160 degrees C. Formation of aldehydes was detected, and saturated as well as alpha,beta-unsaturated aldehydes could be identified with the help of pure component spectra. The f...
متن کاملApplications of Fourier transform-infrared spectroscopy to edible oils.
Recent developments in Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy instrumentation extend the application of this technique to the field of food research, facilitating particularly the studies on edible oils and fats. In this work, FT-IR spectroscopy is used as an effective analytical tool in order: (a) to determine extra virgin olive oil adulteration with lower priced vegetable oils (sunfl...
متن کاملSynchronized Analysis of FTIR Spectra and GCMS Chromatograms for Evaluation of the Thermally Degraded Vegetable Oils
Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) and Gas Chromatography Mass Spectrometry (GCMS) are two common instruments used for analysis of edible oils. The output signal is often analysed on the software attached to the workstations. The processing software is usually individualised for a specific source. The output of GCMS cannot be analysed on the FTIR hence analysts often need to juggle between instr...
