The combination of monoglycerides, wax and hardfat on oleogels structuration

A combinação de monoglicerídeos, ceras e hardfat na estruturação de organogéis

Abstract

This study aimed to develop multicomponent oleogels to achieve desirable technological properties, affordability, and enhanced sensory acceptance for future food applications. Two Central Composite Rotatable Designs (CCRD) were performed with three independent variables, monoacylglycerols (MG), candelilla wax (CLX), and hardfat (HF). One design used soybean oil oleogels (SB) and the other used high oleic sunflower oil oleogels (SF). The variable responses evaluated were hardness (N), oil loss (%), thermal stability, and visual strength. For SB oleogels, CLX was related to the variable that was superior concerning all technological properties as >2 N in hardness, no oil loss, and higher stability to thermal treatment. For SF oleogels, the MG and the interactions of MG, CLX, and HF showed significant technological properties, indicating that the three oleogelators can co-crystallize better together in this oil, thus obtaining the same results as CLX alone in higher amounts.

HIGHLIGHTS

• Highlights Monoglycerides (MG), candelilla wax (CLW), and crambe hardfat (HF) oleogels were evaluated as a fat replacer.

• Two different oils- soybean (SB) and high oleic sunflower (SF)- were evaluated as lipid matrix.

• CLW was the oleogelator that primarily influenced hardness and stability for SB.

• In SF oleogels, the MG and HF were also significant about physical properties.
