    Abstract

    This study evaluated the effectiveness of antioxidants, such as BHA, BHT, TBHQ, propyl gallate (PG), α-tocopherol (α-T), green tea extract (GTE), and rosemary extract (RE) on oxidative stability of CLA concentrate. Stability of CLA concentrate stored in air at 45°C up to 44 d was assessed by PV. During the storage period, the PV of the control CLA concentrate sample increased from 0.20 (fresh oil) to 1654 meq/kg (oxidized oil). On the other hand, the PV for CLA concentrates treated with 200 ppm of the single synthetic antioxidants, BHA, BHT, TBHQ, and PG, increased from 0.20 to 81, 107, 78, and 101 meq/kg, respectively. Also, the PV of CLA concentrate with the addition of 200 ppm single natural antioxidants α-T, GTE, and RE lowered the final PV to 122, 140, and 110 meq/kg, respectively. Under our experimental conditions, the protective effect of 200 ppm antioxidant was in the order of TBHQ > BHA > PG > BHT > RE > α-T > GTE. These results suggest that the appropriate use of antioxidants prolongs the oxidative stability of CLA concentrate.
