Phenolic extracts of coconut oil meal (CME) and sesame oil meal (SME) were compared with synthetic antioxidants for the potential of improving shelf life of vanilla cake. CME maintained hexanal (product of chemical spoilage) levels below 0.3 mg/kg in cake up to 14 days. BHT- and SME-added cakes maintained hexanal levels below 2 mg/kg, while control cake with no added antioxidants exceeded this level by day 14. Both CME and SME extended the microbial shelf life up to 13 days, while control and BHT-added cake exceeded the maximum allowed colony count by day 7 and day 11, respectively. The results indicate that the onset of microbial spoilage of vanilla cake is faster than the chemical spoilage, and addition of CME and SME extends both microbiological and chemical stability of cakes beyond day 7 during storage. Over 90% of the antioxidant activity of CME and SME retained after heating at 180°C for 2 h. CME and SME are ideal thermally stable natural alternatives for synthetic antioxidants in vanilla cake.

Abstract Background: Fish contains high polyunsaturated fatty acids and has good healthy biological values, so it is considered a vital ingredient in the human diet. Antioxidants play an essential role in the food industry due to their help breaking down the oxidation process. The consumer demands fresh refrigerated foods that extend shelf life without changing taste. By using oil and vacuum packaging techniques, considerable research has been conducted to preserve and extend the shelf life of Channa marulius fillets. Since rapeseed oil and sesame oil are considered good sources of antioxidants, their role in preserving and extending the shelf life of Channa marulius fillets is limited.Methods: Channa marulius fish fillets weighing 4-5 kg each were obtained from the market. The fillets were washed and divided into 5 groups using different concentrations of sesame oil (S.O) and rapeseed oil (R.O) nanoemulsion i.e., Control (C) without treatment, T1 (S.O 20%), T2 (S.O 25%), T3 (R.O 20%) and T4 (R.O 25%). The fillets were soaked in nanoemulsion for 30 minutes and packed with a vacuum packing machine before storing at -40 oC. After an interval of 0, 4, 7, and 15 days the oxidative stability, antioxidant activity and sensory evaluation determined of each treatment were determined. Result: Compared with the control group, the free fatty acid (FFA) levels and peroxide values (PV) values were lower in the treated groups. Lipid oxidation increased over time in the control group due to lipid oxidation. Total phenolic content (TPC), total flavonoid content (TFC) and antioxidant activity of the fillets decreased due to the nanoemulsion. Oxidative stability fluctuated and increased with storage time because of more fatty acid hydrolysis. The reduction was noted in the antioxidant property because it hampered the oxidation stability. Channa marulius' sensory evaluation revealed that nanoemulsion and vacuum packaging had a higher sensory score than the control group. Conclusion: The role of rapeseed and sesame oil as natural antioxidants was investigated to preserve and extend the shelf life of Channa marulius fillets. The use of nanoemulsions by using sesame oil and rapeseed oil reduced the oxidation stability and enhance the antioxidant activity of Channa marulius fillets. Among the oils, it can be concluded that sesame oil can be recommended for nanoemulsion as a good preservative for fish fillets.

Background: Nowadays, natural antioxidants are used to replace synthetic antioxidants for delaying or preventing the oxidation of edible oils. In this study, phenolic compounds and antioxidant properties of methanol extracts of Spirulina microalgae (Arthrospira platensis) were measured. Methods: Phenolic content was measured by Folin–Ciocalteau method and antioxidant activity was measured by the 2, 2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) method. Also, spirulina microalgae as natural antioxidant, was added to sesame oil for improving its oxidative stability. The effects of methanol extract of these microalgae in four concentrations (0, 500, 1000 and 2000 ppm) and synthetic antioxidants of butylated hydroxyl anyzole (BHA) and butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) in two levels (100 and 200 ppm) in retarding the sesame oil oxidation were examined. Results: The results showed that spirulina extract had 50.54 mg gallic acid/g samples total phenols and antiradical activity (84.38%). By increasing the concentration of the extracts, the oxidation process decreased. Methanol extract at 1000 ppm concentration had the highest antiradical activity than other concentrations and its antiradical activity was alike the synthesis antioxidant of BHA. By Increasing of storage period, peroxide values in 500 and 1000 ppm of spirulina extracts first increased then decreased and in other treatment increased. During storage time thiobarbituric acid index increased. However, this increase was higher in control treatment than others. Conclusion: According to the stated content, it can be said that methanol extracts of spirulina have appropriate antioxidant properties and spirulina can be used as a natural antioxidant to improve the oxidative stability of sesame oil.

Influence of antioxidants on oxidative stability of beef tallow Fats are contained in the majority of foods that are consumed daily. Beef tallow is one of the most complex fats found in nature. Tallow is subject to oxidation during the production, storage and heat treatment. This study researched the effect of natural antioxidants (rosemary extract type Oxy’Less CS and type StabilEnhance, sage extract, alpha tocopherol, mixture tocopherol) and synthetic antioxidants (PG, BHA) on the oxidative stability of beef tallow. The oxidative stability of beef tallow, with and without added antioxidant, was evaluated using the sustainability test at 98 oC. The results are expressed as peroxide value (mmol O2/kg) obtained after storing the sample for a certain period of time at the temperature of 98°C. The results showed that applied antioxidants successfully stabilized the beef tallow. Among natural antioxidants, rosemary extract type Oxy'Less CS showed a higher antioxidant activity in beef tallow. In comparison with other tested antioxidants, it achieved greater efficiency in protecting the beef tallow from oxidation. Synthetic antioxidants propyl galate and butylhydroxyanisole successfully increased the stability of beef tallow, whereby propyl galate showed a higher antioxidant activity.

Antioxidant activities of the phenolic extracts of seed oils and seed hulls of five plant species were compared with those of butylated hydroxyl toluene (BHT) solutions at comparable phenolic concentrations in order to understand the phenolic dependence of the antioxidant activity and to evaluate the potentials of these phenolic extracts as alternatives for synthetic antioxidants. For this purpose, colorimetrically determined total phenol contents of the plant extracts were adjusted to known concentrations by suitable dilutions and the solutions of BHT with comparable concentrations were prepared by diluting a stock solution. The correlations of the total phenol contents and o-diphenol contents with the antioxidant activities of the phenolic extracts were also tested. Antioxidant activities of the phenolic extracts from different plants varied even at equal total phenol concentrations. o-Diphenol contents showed better correlations with the antioxidant activities than total phenol contents. A clear idea about the antioxidant potentials and the dependence of antioxidant activities on the quality and the quantity of phenolic substances can be obtained by comparison of the antioxidant activities of different phenolic extracts at equal total phenol concentrations.

The antioxidant activity of cookies prepared by the addition of sugarbeet dietary fibers was investigated in order to estimate their influence on functional characteristics and shelf-life of cookies. Treated fiber (TF) was obtained from sugarbeet by extraction with sulfurous acid (75 °C at pH = 5.7during 60 min) and treatment with hydrogen peroxide (20 g/LH2O2 at pH = 11 during 24 h). The fiber obtained was dried (80 °C), ground and sieved. TF was investigated in comparison with commercially available Fibrex®. The cookies were prepared by the addition of 0, 7, 9 and 11% of sugarbeet dietary fiber as a substitute for wheat flour in the formulation of cookies. The antioxidant properties of cookies were tested every 7 days using a DPPH (1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl) radical scavenging activity test during 6 weeks of storage at room temperature (23 ± 1 ºC). The obtained results indicated that substitution of wheat flour with Fibrex® in the formulation of cookies upgraded the antioxidant activity, i.e. the functional characteristics of Fibrex®-enriched cookies and could prolong their shelf-life. In contrast, TF did not increase the antioxidant activity of TF-enriched cookies. The better antioxidant activities of Fibrex®-enriched cookies could be attributed to the presence of ferulic acid.
