Determination of total lipid and lipid subclasses in meat and meat products

Current interest in physiological and nutritional activities of the sterol, polyunsaturated fatty acid, and polar lipid fractions of meats and other foods indicates that analytical methods for lipids should be evaluated on their ability to recover and quantitate these classes. Current methods of lipid isolation furnish an extract that is dependent on the solvent(s) used, the type of food material, the temperature of extraction, and the relative proportions of the lipid classes present. Extraction with ethers or other relatively nonpolar solvents removes principally the neutral fats and nonpolar lipids. For an approximation of the crude fat content, such extraction is often sufficient, because the nonpolar fraction generally constitutes over 90% of the total lipids present. The polar lipids include the biochemically important (omega-3) and (omega-6) polyunsaturated fatty acid classes; thus, the method of lipid extraction of food products becomes relevant for a more complete and valuable characterization of their nutritional value. The various methods of lipid determination for meat products are examined for their total recovery of these important lipid groups. A sequential extraction in conjunction with subsequent analytical methods is recommended.     

Ameliorative influence of sesame lignans on lipid profile and lipid peroxidation in induced diabetic rats

Sesame lignans are working as antioxidants in various physiological functions. In the present study, the antioxidative effect of sesame lignans is examined in chemically induced diabetes mellitus (DM) in rats against lipid profile and lipid peroxidations. DM was induced in four groups of rats by injection of alloxan. The control groups (non-diabetic and diabetic) received a diet containing sunflower oil while the rest of the three experimental diabetic groups received a diet containing 0.25% alpha-tocopherol (D-Toc), 0.5% sesame lignan (D-SL), and 0.25% alpha-tocopherol+0.25% sesame lignan (D-Toc-SL) in sunflower oil for 4 weeks. Lipid profile and lipid peroxidations of plasma, erythrocyte membrane (EM), and liver tissues were measured. The total cholesterol, non-HDL cholesterol, plasma lipid peroxidation, and also LDL-peroxidation decreased, and HDL cholesterol increased significantly (P<0.05) in all the experimental groups as compared to the control diabetic sunflower oil group. The triacylglycerol (TAG) level in plasma decreased significantly in the D-SL and D-Toc-SL groups as compared to control diabetic group. Significant decrease in TAG level was observed in the D-SL group as compared to the D-Toc group. LDL peroxidation also decreased significantly in the D-Toc-SL group as compared to the D-Toc group. EM lipid peroxidation and liver lipid peroxidation decreased significantly in the D-Toc, D-SL, and D-Toc-SL groups as compared to the control diabetic group. Liver TAG level decreased more significantly in the D-SL and D-Toc-SL groups than in the control diabetic group. So, sesame lignans at 0.5% level and sesame lignan + alpha-tocopherol significantly ameliorate the alteration in lipid profile and the adverse free radical generative influence of DM induced by alloxan.

Ability of lipid hydroperoxides to partition into surfactant micelles and alter lipid oxidation rates in emulsions

Lipid hydroperoxides are important factors in lipid oxidation due to their ability to decompose into free radicals. In oil-in-water emulsions, the physical location of lipid hydroperoxides could impact their ability to interact with prooxidants such as iron. Interfacial tension measurements show that linoleic acid, methyl linoleate, and trilinolein hydroperoxides are more surface-active than their non-peroxidized counterparts. In oil-in-water emulsion containing surfactant (Brij 76) micelles in the continuous phase, linoleic acid, methyl linoleate, and trilinolein hydroperoxides were solubilized out of the lipid droplets into the aqueous phase. Brij 76 solubilization of the different hydroperoxides was in the order of linoleic acid > trilinolein > or = methyl linoleate. Brij 76 micelles inhibited lipid oxidation of corn oil-in-water emulsions with greater inhibition of oxidation occurring in emulsions containing linoleic acid hydroperoxides. Surfactant solubilization of lipid hydroperoxides could be responsible for the ability of surfactant micelles to inhibit lipid oxidation in oil-in-water emulsions.     

Evaluation of lipid ultraviolet absorption as a parameter to measure lipid oxidation in dark chicken meat

The application of lipid UV absorption (235, 269, and 280 nm) to follow up lipid oxidation in dark chicken meat has been evaluated using raw and cooked samples with different alpha-tocopherol contents (modulated by dietary supplementation). To this purpose, when absorption was measured at 235 nm, second-derivative spectrophotometry did not show any significant advantage over nonderivative spectrophotometry. For absorption at 269 and 280 nm, nonderivative spectrophotometry more sensitively monitored lipid oxidation than second- and third-derivative spectrophotometry. In addition, only direct measurements at 235 and 269 nm and second-derivative measurements at 235 nm showed a limited usefulness to follow up lipid oxidation in our samples. However, these UV absorption parameters were much less effective than lipid hydroperoxide values measured through a ferrous oxidation-xylenol orange method and 2-thiobarbituric acid values determined by a third-derivative spectrophotometric method with acid aqueous extraction.

Effects of released iron, lipid peroxides, and ascorbate in trout hemoglobin-mediated lipid oxidation of washed cod muscle

Approximately 7% of the iron associated with hemoglobin was released from the heme protein during 2 degrees C storage in washed cod muscle. EDTA (2.2 mM) neither accelerated nor inhibited hemoglobin-mediated lipid oxidation based on the formation of lipid peroxides and TBARS. This suggested that low molecular weight iron was a minor contributor to hemoglobin-mediated lipid oxidation in washed cod muscle. Ascorbate (2.2 mM) was a modest to highly effective inhibitor of hemoglobin-mediated lipid oxidation depending on which washed cod preparation was assessed. Experimental evidence suggested that the ability of residual ascorbate to breakdown accumulating lipid hydroperoxides to reactive lipid radicals can explain the shift of ascorbate from an antioxidant to a pro-oxidant. Increasing the lipid peroxide content in washed cod muscle accelerated hemoglobin-mediated lipid oxidation and decreased the ability of ascorbate to inhibit lipid oxidation. Preformed lipid peroxide content in cod muscle was highly variable from fish to fish.     

Effects of long-term feeding of chitosan on postprandial lipid responses and lipid metabolism in a high-sucrose-diet-impaired glucose-tolerant rat model

This study was designed to investigate the effects of long-term feeding of chitosan on postprandial lipid response and lipid metabolism in a high-sucrose (HS)-diet-impaired glucose-tolerant rat model. As the results, HS-diet-fed rats supplemented with 5 and 7% chitosan in diets for 9 weeks had lower postprandial plasma total cholesterol (TC) levels, but 7% chitosan in the diet had higher postprandial plasma triglyceride (TG) and TG-rich lipoprotein TG levels. Supplementation of chitosan significantly decreased the postprandial ratio of apolipoprotein B (apoB)48/apoB100 in TG-rich lipoprotein fractions of HS-diet-fed rats. Long-term supplementation of 5 and 7% chitosan in diets for 16 weeks had lower plasma TC, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) + very low density lipoprotein cholesterol (VLDL-C), TC/high-density lipoprotein (HDL-C) ratio, leptin, and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) levels in HS-diet-fed rats. Moreover, it was noticed that the VLDL receptor (VLDLR) protein expression in skeletal muscles of HS-diet-fed rats was significantly decreased, which could be significantly reversed by supplementation of 5 and 7% chitosan. Rats supplemented with 7% chitosan in the diet significantly elevated the lipolysis rate and decreased the accumulation of TG in epididymal fat pads of HS-diet-fed rats. The plasma angiopoietin-like 4 (ANGPTL4) protein expression was not affected in HS-diet-fed rats, but it was significantly increased in 7% chitosan-supplemented HS-diet-fed rats. Taken together, these results indicate that supplementation of chitosan in the diet can improve the impairment of lipid metabolism in a HS-diet-fed rat model, but long-term high-dose chitosan feeding may enhance postprandial plasma TG and TG-rich lipoprotein TG levels in HS-diet-fed rats through an ANGPTL4-regulated pathway.     

Deoxyhemoglobin-mediated lipid oxidation in washed fish muscle

Deoxyhemoglobin-mediated lipid oxidation was studied by comparing the pro-oxidative activity of anodic and cathodic hemoglobins from trout in a washed cod muscle model system. At pH 6.3, cathodic hemoglobins were nearly fully oxygenated while anodic hemoglobins were poorly oxygenated. Anodic hemoglobins initiated lipid oxidation in washed cod muscle much more rapidly than cathodic hemoglobins, as measured by thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) formation. Moreover, anodic hemoglobins appeared to oxidize more rapidly as compared to cathodic hemoglobins in the washed cod muscle model system, as measured by a decrease in redness (a value). A more pronounced pro-oxidative activity of deoxyhemoglobin as compared to oxyhemoglobin was confirmed by accelerated lipid hydroperoxide and TBARS formation in the washed cod muscle model system upon combined addition of anodic hemoglobins and adenosine triphosphate, which is known to lower the oxygenation of anodic hemoglobins at pH 7.2, as compared to only addition of anodic hemoglobins to the washed cod muscle. These studies suggest that deoxyhemoglobin is more pro-oxidative than its oxygenated counterpart at pH values found in postmortem fish muscle.     

Effects of fish heme protein structure and lipid substrate composition on hemoglobin-mediated lipid oxidation

Hemoglobin (Hb) promoted lipid oxidation more effectively in washed tilapia as compared to washed cod in spite of a 2.8-fold higher polyenoic index in the washed cod. This suggested that increasing the fatty acid unsaturation of the substrate did not accelerate the onset of lipid oxidation. Substantial phospholipid hydrolysis in the washed cod was observed, which has the potential to inhibit lipid oxidation. MetHb formation and lipid oxidation occurred more rapidly at pH 6.3 as compared to pH 7.4. Trout Hb autoxidized faster and was a better promoter of lipid oxidation as compared to tilapia Hb. The greater ability of trout Hb to promote lipid oxidation was attributed in part to its lower conformational and structural stability based on secondary and tertiary structure, acid-induced unfolding, and thermal aggregation measurements. It is suggested that the structural instability and lipid oxidation capacity of trout Hb were at least partly due to low hemin affinity. Trout and tilapia Hb were equivalent in their ability to cause lipid oxidation in washed cod muscle heated to 80 degrees C. Apparently, these high temperatures denature both trout and tilapia Hb to such an extent that any differences in conformational stability observed at lower temperatures were negated.
