The aim of the study was to evaluate the composition in fatty acids (FAi) and trans fatty acids (t-FAi) from potato chips and French fries using gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry (GC-MS). The fat sample was extracted with petroleum ether, using the Buchi B-811 automatic extraction unit, the Soxhlet Standard procedure. The extracted fat was saponified with sodium methoxide solution and the fatty acids derivatized into fatty acid methyl esters (FAME) with BF3 methanolic solution. Six potato chips samples and six French fries samples, coming from 3, respectively 5 brands, were purchased from supermarkets and fast foods in Bucharest, Romania. In potato chips, saturated (SFA), cis-monounsaturated (MUFA) and polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) were present between 6.410 - 48.862%, 41.786 - 84.570%, respectively 5.567 - 28.274%, and in French fries ranged between 7.001 - 57.277%, 35.281 � 57.894%, respectively 7.442 � 49.392%. The tested samples showed that the level of total trans fatty acids (TFA) was less than 0.2% (undetectable - 0.124%). It can be concluded that potato chips and French fries marketed in Bucharest, Romania are safe for consumers in terms of TFA content.

The objective of this study was to evaluate short-term variations of trans fatty acids (TFA) in plasma lipoproteins and ruminal fermentation parameters of non-lactating cows subjected to ruminal pulses of vegetable oils. Three non-lactating, non-pregnant Holstein cows, each with a ruminal cannula, were arranged in a 3 × 3 Latin square design with three-day pulsing periods and four-day washout intervals between treatments. Cows were treated with single ruminal pulses of: (1) control (skimmed milk (SM); 500 mL); (2) soybean oil (SO; 250 g/d in 500 mL of SM) and (3) partially-hydrogenated vegetable oil (PHVO; 250 g/d in 500 mL of SM). Time changes after infusion in TFA contents were only observed for plasma C18:1 trans-4, trans-5 and trans-12, and high-density lipoprotein fraction C18:1 trans-9. After ruminal pulses, concentration of acetate decreased linearly; molar concentrations of propionate and valerate increased linearly; molar concentrations of butyrate and isovalerate changed quadratically and were greater at 1 h than at other times. There was an accumulation of several C18:1 TFA in plasma and lipoproteins, especially on the third day of pulsing. Overall, naturally occurring C18:1 TFA isomers (produced during ruminal biohydrogenation of SO) and preformed TFA (supplied by PHVO) elicited differential TFA partitioning and transport in plasma and lipoproteins.

In this work, fatty-acid profiles, including trans fatty acids, in combination with chemometric tools, were applied as a determinant of purity (i.e., adulteration) and provenance (i.e., geographical origin) of cosmetic grade argan oil collected from different regions of Morocco in 2017. The fatty acid profiles obtained by gas chromatography (GC) showed that oleic acid (C18:1) is the most abundant fatty acid, followed by linoleic acid (C18:2) and palmitic acid (C16:0). The content of trans-oleic and trans-linoleic isomers was between 0.02% and 0.03%, while trans-linolenic isomers were between 0.06% and 0.09%. Discriminant analysis (DA) and orthogonal projection to latent structure—discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA) were performed to discriminate between argan oils from Essaouira, Taroudant, Tiznit, Chtouka-Aït Baha and Sidi Ifni. The correct classification rate was highest for argan oil from the Chtouka-Aït Baha province (90.0%) and the lowest for oils from the Sidi Ifni province (14.3%), with an overall correct classification rate of 51.6%. Pairwise comparison using OPLS-DA could predictably differentiate (≥0.92) between the geographical regions with the levels of stearic (C18:0) and arachidic (C20:0) fatty acids accounting for most of the variance. This study shows the feasibility of implementing authenticity criteria for argan oils by including limit values for trans-fatty acids and the ability to discern provenance using fatty acid profiling.
