Abstract

AbstractMaillard reaction volatile compounds (MRV), prepared by heating a glucose‐glycine solution, were tested as antioxidants in soybean oil (SBO) thermoxidation. The volatiles were transferred into the oil by stripping with a stream of Nitrogen and substituting the atmosphere above the oil with air containing MRV. Standard accelerated oxidation was performed by heating the SBO. Peroxide value measurement and headspace gas Chromatographic analysis were carried out on all the samples. The MRV antioxidant activity was evaluated by determining the effect of the induction period and the kinetic rate constant of peroxide and oxidation volatiles formation. The MRV showed a significant antioxidant activity. The effectiveness was variable depending on MRV transfer method to the oil, and the Maillard reaction extent was related to the browning level of glucose/glycine solution. It was found that the maximum effect of MRV prolonged about three times the induction period and reduced the kinetic rate constant by half in relation to the control sample. MRV affects oxidative stability of soybean oil by lengthening the induction period as well as by decreasing the rate of oxidation at the propagation state and reducing the formation of hexanal.
