Quality evaluation of rapeseed oil in Chinese traditional stir‐frying

摘要

Canolol is a potential antioxidation ingredient in rapeseed oil. Rapeseed oil with two levels of canolol (528.9 vs. 250.5 mg/kg) was used for stir‐frying different foods (potatoes, tofu, and vegetables). Comprehensive evaluations indicated that the canolol content in high canolol rapeseed oil (HCR) and low canolol rapeseed oil (LCR) after stir‐frying were in the range of 187.8–237.7 and 45.6–96.4 mg/kg, respectively. The degradation rate of total phenol was 58.4% and 80.3% in HCR and LCR, respectively. The loss rates of α‐ and γ‐tocopherol were 24.5% and 47.6%, respectively. Phytosterol concentration decreased by 20% and trans‐fatty acid was not detected in either rapeseed oil. In addition, the peroxide value, anisidine value, and malondialdehyde content in HCR were lower than those in LCR. The oxidative stability index in HCR was longer, showing lower extent of deterioration. Rapeseed oil with high canolol content displayed good oxidation resistance due to significant positive correlation with oxidation induction time (
