Identification and kinetics of oxidized compounds from phosphatidylcholine molecular species
2010
Abstract Heat-induced oxidative modifications of two phosphatidylcholine molecular species as potential functional food components were evaluated. 1-stearoyl-2-oleoyl- sn -glycero-3-phosphocholine (SOPC) and 1-stearoyl-2-linoleoyl- sn -glycero-3-phosphocholine (SLPC) were chosen as models. The optimal temperature for hydroperoxide formation was determined by MS for each standard: 125 °C for SLPC and 150 °C for SOPC. Oxidation was performed at these temperatures and degradation products were identified using LC–ESI-MS combined to an acid treatment. Kinetics of formation of oxidation products from SOPC and SLPC were monitored over 120 min and curves were drawn for each identified structure. Results showed that native phospholipids rapidly decreased with heat and that oxidation products showed functions, such as hydroxyl, oxo or epoxy groups. Kinetics pointed out that some of these quite stable oxidation products are likely to be found in sizable amounts in processed foods containing phospholipids.
