The aim of present study was to investigate the quality, stability and suitability of different frying oils (coconut, palm, frying mix, rapeseed and sunflower oil), the quality and stability of breaded and fried foods (chicken nuggets) and the applicability and suitability of certain parameters (fat absorption, acid number, peroxide number and thiobarbituric acid (TBA) number, fatty acid composition and acrylamide content) as well as sensory attributes to control the repeated deep-(fat) frying process. Three repeated deep-frying processes affected the hydrolytic and oxidation stability (increase in the peroxide number and TBA number), the sensory properties (darkening of the oil colour, occurrence of odd smell and aroma as well as rancidity in oils) and the fatty acid composition of oil and fried chicken nuggets, and the acrylamide content in the nuggets (from the second deep-frying process onwards). All oils used in study were suitable for deep-frying; in terms of stability, coconut oil (followed by sunflower, palm, frying mix and rapeseed oil) was most suitable; in terms of fatty acid composition, the frying mix, rapeseed and sunflower oil were most suitable; and in terms of acrylamide formation and sensory quality, coconut and palm oil were most suitable.

SummaryPlatelet aggregation and its relation to fatty acid composition of platelets, plasma and adipose tissue was determined in 196 randomly selected, free-living, 40-49-year-old men in two regions of Finland (east and southwest) with a nearly twofold difference in the IHD rate.There were no significant east-southwest differences in platelet aggregation induced with ADP, thrombin or epinephrine. ADP-induced platelet secondary aggregation showed significant negative associations with all C20-C22 ω3-fatty acids in platelets (r = -0.26 - -0.40) and with the platelet 20: 5ω3/20: 4ω 6 and ω3/ ω6 ratios, but significant positive correlations with the contents of 18:2 in adipose tissue (r = 0.20) and plasma triglycerides (TG) (r = 0.29). Epinephrine-induced aggregation correlated negatively with 20: 5ω 3 in plasma cholesteryl esters (CE) (r = -0.23) and TG (r = -0.29), and positively with the total percentage of saturated fatty acids in platelets (r = 0.33), but had no significant correlations with any of the ω6-fatty acids. Thrombin-induced aggregation correlated negatively with the ω3/6ω ratio in adipose tissue (r = -0.25) and the 20: 3ω6/20: 4ω 6 ratio in plasma CE (r = -0.27) and free fatty acids (FFA) (r = -0.23), and positively with adipose tissue 18:2 (r = 0.23) and 20:4ω6 (r = 0.22) in plasma phospholipids (PL).The percentages of prostanoid precursors in platelet lipids, i. e. 20: 3ω 6, 20: 4ω 6 and 20 :5ω 3, correlated best with the same fatty acids in plasma CE (r = 0.32 - 0.77) and PL (r = 0.28 - 0.74). Platelet 20: 5ω 3 had highly significant negative correlations with the percentage of 18:2 in adipose tissue and all plasma lipid fractions (r = -0.35 - -0.44).These results suggest that, among a free-living population, relatively small changes in the fatty acid composition of plasma and platelets may be reflected in significant differences in platelet aggregation, and that an increase in linoleate-rich vegetable fat in the diet may not affect platelet function favourably unless it is accompanied by an adequate supply of ω3 fatty acids.
