Application of a two-dimensional gas chromatography for analysis of lard and other fats and oils

Lard is an important ingredient in the food industry because of its physical and chemical properties as well as its economic importance. However, the utilization and consumption of lard and other porcine-based products are strictly forbidden for followers of certain religions, especially Islam. In o...

However, a few components were observed to be high in the specific sample such as C18:2 n6t in LA and CF, C14:0 in CA and C18:1 n9c in GF. GF also contained various and significant amounts of branched chain FA such as C13:0ai, C14:0ai, C15:0i, C15:0ai, C16:0i, C17:0i, C17:0ai, C18:0i, C19:0i and C19:0ai.

Characterization of MG-DG in fats and oils could be important criteria in determining the source of origin of a particular lipid. The GC×GC-TOF-MS technique incorporated with a fast GC microbore column was demonstrated to rapidly unravel the composition of MG-DG in the products of the glycerolysis process from five different fats/oils including palm oil (PA),lard (LA), sunflower seed oil (SF), corn oil (CO) and butter (BU). LA and PA profile relatively covered wide-range of MG-DG, from short-chain to long-chain carbon atoms in their glycerol backbone. SF contained long-chain MG-DG, in contrast with BU which only has short-chain MG-DG. SF has only few types of MG-DG, which were palmitic acid in the sn-3 position and stearic acid for MG, while C18:1t and C18:2c for DG. SF did not have any short-chain fatty acid in the glycerol backbone. SF and CO only contained C16:0 and C18:0 in their MG groups. CO comprised of long-chain fatty acids in its DG profile. C18:1t and C18:2c were the main DG groups present in SF.

description Lard is an important ingredient in the food industry because of its physical and chemical properties as well as its economic importance.
