Analysis Of Antioxidant Synergism And Its Mechanisms In Different Food Systems, Ipek Bayram
Doctoral Dissertations
Lipid oxidation results in off-flavors, toxic aldehydes, and co-oxidation of proteins and color compounds. Combining antioxidants to achieve synergistic interactions has been practiced for decades to improve oxidative stability. Nevertheless, synergism mechanisms have been poorly understood and rarely studied. This dissertation examines the mechanisms of antioxidant synergism in a model system with α-tocopherol (α-TOC) and myricetin (MYR). The interactions between α-tocopherol and taxifolin (TAX) were also tested because it has structural similarities to myricetin but has a higher redox potential. The first part of this research focused on the antioxidant interactions between α-tocopherol and myricetin in stripped soybean oil-in-water emulsions …
Evaluation Of Xanthan/Enzymatically Modified Guar Gum Mixtures In Oil-In-Water Emulsions, Pavan Kumar Chityala

Masters Theses & Specialist Projects
Oil-in-water emulsions have wide range of applications in food industry because of their structure-forming properties, and as delivery systems of polyunsaturated fatty acids into foods. The thermodynamic instability of oil and water, and high susceptibility of unsaturated fatty acids to oxidation lead to physical and oxidative stability in oil-in-water emulsions. These instability processes are generally controlled by incorporating proteins and polysaccharides into oil-in-water emulsions. The objective of this study was to evaluate xanthan/enzymatically modified guar (XG/EMG) polysaccharides on the physical and oxidative stability of 2 wt% whey protein stabilized oil-in-water emulsions containing 20% v/v menhaden fish oil. Enzymatic modified guar …

Theses and Dissertations--Animal and Food Sciences
Consumers’ demands for ω-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) are at all-time high. Algae, a common source of PUFAs, and antioxidants are both used as supplements in livestock feeds, are known to affect the overall quality of meat. To implement PUFA deposits into broiler meat, this study evaluated combining antioxidants and algae in broiler feed to enhance the breast meat quality. Broilers were fed diets supplemented with 50 IU Vitamin E or 200 g/ton EconomasE (EcoE, an antioxidant pack) plus 10 IU Vitamin E, with or without 0.5% algae extract (SP-1). The feed oil was partially oxidized soybean oil (POV: 86 …
