摘要
Physicochemical and thermal characteristics of Australian chia seed oil (CSO) were studied. The specific gravity, viscosity and refractive index of CSO at ambient temperature were 0.93, 43.2 mPa.s and 1.48, respectively. The acid, peroxide, saponification and iodine values and unsaponifiable matter content of CSO were 2.54 g KOH/kg oil, 433 meq O-2/kg oil, 197 g KOH/kg oil, 204 g I-2/kg oil and 1.12%, respectively. alpha-linolenic acid is the most abundant fatty acid comprising (64.39% of total oil) followed by linoleic acid (21.46%), while saturated fatty acid content is less than '10%. This CSO contained twelve triacylglycerols (TAGs) out of which trilinolenin (alpha Ln alpha Ln alpha Ln) was the most abundant comprising 33.2% of total TAG. Melting point and melting enthalpy of CSO were -34 degrees C and 77.48 J/g, respectively. CSO remained stable up to 300 degrees C with negligible degradation. Due to these physicochemical and thermal properties, CSO is an excellent source of essential fatty acids for food industries. (C) 2017 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
