| Abstract: | The objective of this research was to study the effect of the antioxidants, delta-tocopherol, butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA), butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT), tertiary butylhydroquinone (TBHQ), and propyl gallate in a model system of lean muscle and canola oil and to compare the effects with those in minced herring. Two carrier solvents with different dielectric constants (epsilon), ethanol (epsilon = 24) and oil (epsilon= 2), were used. Oxidation was measured using thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) and sensory analysis. In both the lean muscle-canola oil model system and in herring muscle, the hydrophilic antioxidants, propyl gallate and TBHQ, were more effective in providing oxidative stability than the lipophilic antioxidants, delta-tocopherol and BHT. The oxidative stability of a cod muscle-canola oil system in the presence of propyl gallate, and delta-tocopherol was not affected by the dielectric constant of the carrier solvent, while BHA was more effective as an antioxidant when added in the polar solvent ethanol. |
