Abstract

18

Polyglycerol ester is considered as a kind of excellent food emulsions. The current

19

study was to synthesize the polyglycerol fatty acid esters (PGFEs) with different

20

long-chain fatty acids, i. e. long carbon fatty acid polyglycerol esters (L-PGFEs),

21

medium carbon fatty acid polyglycerol esters (M-PGFEs) and short carbon fatty acid

22

polyglycerol esters (S-PGFEs), using Lipozyme 435 as a catalyst in a solvent-free

23

system. Thereafter, the physicochemical properties and the potential applications as a

24

food emulsifier of the newly synthesized PGFEs were investigated. The maximum

25

esterification efficiency of L-PGFEs, M-PGFEs and S-PGFEs were achieved to

26

69.37%, 67.34% and 71.68%, respectively, at the optimum conditions: reaction

27

temperature 84.48℃, reaction time 6 h, the molar ratio of polyglycerol to fatty acid

28

1.35:1, enzyme usage 1.41 wt% (based on the total substrate mass). High performance

29

liquid chromatography equipped with an evaporative light scattering detector

30

(HPLC-ELSD) and electrospray ionization mass spectrum (ESI-MS) were employed

31

to identify the synthesized products. Results demonstrated that the main components

32

of these PGFEs were dimeric glycerides (68.3%), triglycerides (13.13%), and a small

33

amount of tetraglycerides (3.18%). The properties of PGFEs were characterized by

34

physical and chemical methods. Compared to M-PGFEs and S-PGFEs, L-PGFEs had

35

the best physicochemical properties without any obvious odor. Further, the emulsion

36

capabilities of these different long-chain PGFEs were evaluated via examining the

37

particle size and storage stability compared to glycerin monostearate (GMS). Results

38

showed that the emulsions prepared by L-PGFEs had the best stability and the

39

smallest particle size (16.8 nm) compared to M-PGFEs, S-PGFEs and GMS, which

40

were not prone to coalescence of oil droplets and separation of oil and water. From the

41

current study, the newly synthesized PGFEs with long-chain fatty acids showed the

42

best advantages as a food emulsifier than M-PGFEs and S-PGFEs, even glycerin

43

monostearate.

Introduction

47

Polyglycerol fatty acid esters (PGFEs) as a new type of safe and effective non-ionic

48

surfactant have been extensively used in foods, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals due to

49

their excellent properties of emulsification, crystallization adjustment, viscosity

50

modifier and antimicrobials.1-4 It is known that the lipophilic PGFEs could promote

51

the formation of crystals5 while the hydrophilic PGFEs inhibited the formation of

52

crystallization in a diacylglycerol-rich oil.6 Meanwhile, PGFEs are considered as a

53

better substitute in emulsification performance than monoglyceride emulsifier on the

54

market. It was reported that the addition of 0.2% PGFEs to the production of

55

margarine was quite equivalent to the addition of 0.4% monoglyceride probably due

56

to the fact that the structure of PGFEs contained more hydrophilic hydroxyl groups

57

than monoglycerides.7-8

58

Currently, PGFEs can be synthesized either chemically or enzymatically. As we know,

59

it is random and easy for chemical methods to produce byproducts, which make it

60

difficult to separate and purify the PGFE products from the crude products. Also the

61

final products used as a food additive often have unpleasant organoleptic features.9

62

Recently, the green synthesis of PGFEs catalyzed by lipase has risen attentions around

63

of the world in view of that they are generally more specific, react under mild

64

conditions, and produce less side-products.10-11In a previous study, Wan FL et al.

65

exploited oligoglycerol with linoleic acid in a solvent-free system using Lipozyme

66

435 as the catalyst to synthesis oligoglycerol fatty acid esters (OGEs).12 Under the

67

optimum conditions (reaction time, 4.52 h, reaction temperature 90℃, enzyme dosage

68

2 wt%), the experimental efficiency of esterification (EE) reached 95.82±0.22%.

69

However, there are few reports on how the chain length of fatty acids affect the

70

hydrophilic lipophilic balance (HLB), thereby affecting the emulsifying properties of

71

the PGFEs.13

72

Natural fats and oils are attractive ingredients for the chemical industry as they are

73

renewable and more environmentally friendly compared with fossil resources. Rice

74

bran oil and Cinnamomum camphora seed oil are two such types of natural fats and

75

oils with specific chain lengths of fatty acids. The major fatty acids of rice bran oil

76

consist of palm acid (12% to 20%), oleic acid (40% to 50%), linoleic acid (29% to

77

42%),14 which is considered as a typical source oil of long-chain fatty acids. Our

78

previous studies showed that Cinnamomum camphora seeds contains about 40% of

79

the fat with up to 90% of capric acid and lauric acid.15However, such medium chain

80

fatty acids-enriched oil is very little utilized in China.16

81

Novozyme 435 (a commercially immobilized lipase B from Candida antarctica) has a

82

relatively high catalytic activity in the esterification reaction and operational

83

stabilities. It presents activity under a large array of conditions and can be widely used

84

as a biocatalyst to catalyze esterification reactions.17-19

85

In the current study, rice bran oil, Cinnamomum camphora seed oil and acetic acid

86

were used as different long chain type sources of fatty acids to enzymatically

87

synthesize the long carbon fatty acid polyglycerol esters (L-PGFEs), medium carbon

88

fatty acid polyglycerol esters (M-PGFEs) and short carbon fatty acid polyglycerol

89

ester (S-PGFEs), respectively. The reaction conditions were optimized. Thereafter, the

90

physical and chemical properties of these PGFE products with different chainlength

91

fatty acids were compared.

Materials and methods

93

Materials

94

Glycerol was purchased from the West Long Chemical Co. (Shantou, China). Rice

95

bran oil was purchased from a local grocery store. Cinnamomum camphora seeds

96

were collected on campus of Nanchang University. Diglycerol (>98%) was purchased

97

from ANPEL. Laboratory Technologies Inc. (Shanghai, China). Double distilled water

98

(Milli-Q) was used to prepare all solutions and emulsions. All other chemicals used

99

were

stated,

and

all solvents were

100

of HPLC grade.

101

Preparation and purification of polyglycerols

102

Glycerin (100.0 g) and sodium hydroxide (3.00 g, 3 wt% based on the glycerin) were

103

added to 250 mL of three-neck flask equipped with one condenser. The temperature of

104

the reaction was controlled by an oil bath (260℃). The stirring speed (300 rpm/min)

105

was controlled by a magnetic stirrer, and nitrogen was continuously used to exclude

106

the air in the reaction system. Then the condensate tube was to reflux glycerol, the

107

reaction process to maintain a stable temperature and stirring strength.20After reaction

108

the temperature cooled below 80℃ and the reaction product was removed. Thereafter,

109

a transparent light brown viscous liquid was collected and purified through the

110

molecular distillation (MD) equipment in the distillation temperature of 120℃,

111

vacuum pressure of 4.0 Pa, and scraping speed of 250 rpm/min.

112

The composition of polyglycerols was analyzed by high performance liquid

113

chromatography (HPLC) according to a modified method described by Crowther MW

114

et al.21After purification by MD, the purity of polyglycerol product was up to 86.33%,

115

including 68.37% diglycerol, 13.13% triglycerol and 3.18% teraglycerol(data not

116

117

Enzymatic synthesis of L-PGFEs, M-PGFEs and S-PGFEs in a solvent-free

118

system

119

Enzymatic esterification was completed in a solvent-free system. Lipozyme 435,

120

polyglycerols and rice bran oil, Cinnamomum camphora seed oil, or acetic acid were

121

added to a 150-mL air-tight flask and reacted at 300 rpm under nitrogen conditions to

122

prevent the oxidation of the reagents, respectively. The effects of reaction temperature

123

(40~100℃), reaction time (2~24 h), enzyme dosage (0.4~2.4 wt% of the total

124

substrate mass), and different molar ratio of polyglycerol to raw oil (2:1~1:2) on the

125

efficiency of esterification (EE) were studied.

126

After each reaction, 10 mL of reaction mixture was taken and centrifuged at 4200 rpm

127

for 10 min to be separated into three layers. The middle layer of the enzyme could be

128

isolated by filtration and used repeatedly and the lower layer of polyglycerol could be

129

used as raw material. The upper layer of a mixture of synthesized polyglycerol fatty

130

acid esters were determined according to the EE calculation as follows:12

131

EE(%) =

AV0 - AV ×100% AV0

ACS Paragon Plus Environment

Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry

132

Where AV0 is the acid value of rice bran oil/Cinnamomum camphora seed oil/acetic

133

acid, and AV is the acid value of the upper oil phase after the reaction. All

134

determinations were carried out in duplicate and the average values were reported.

135

Experiment Design for RSM Study

136

In this study, polyglycerol and rice bran oil were used as substrates. According to the

137

results of single factor test and factor analysis, a three-level three-factor Box-Behnken

138

design was adopted to optimize the reaction conditions. The factors studied were the

139

reaction temperature: (Te, ℃), enzyme dosage (Ed, wt%) and the molar ratio of

140

substrate (Sr, mol/mol). The response value was the efficiency of esterification (EE%).

141

The reaction time was fixed at 6 h for all experiments. All of the experiments were

142

carried out in triplicate and the average values were recorded. Design Expert software

143

(version 8.0, Stat-ease, Inc.) was used for the analysis of variance (ANOVA) and

144

regression analysis of the experimental data.

145

Composition of the PGFEs analyzed by HPLC-ELSD and ESI-MS

146

The chromatographic conditions were referred to the method of Wan F Let al.12 The

147

HPLC system was composed of a Agilent HPLC system equipped with a column of

148

Zorbax eclipse plus C18 (250 mm × 4.6 mm, 5 µm) and evaporative light scattering

149

detector (ELSD). The ELSD was set at 70℃ with a carrier air flow rate of 1.7 L/min,

150

while column temperature was set at 30℃. The mixture of acetonitrile/isopropyl

151

alcohol (55/45, v/v) was delivered as the mobile phase at a flow rate of 0.5 mL/min.

152

The samples were dissolved in isopropyl alcohol with a concentration of 0.1 mg/mL.

153

About 1 mL of this sample solution was filtered through a nylon membrane filter

154

(0.22 µm), and transferred to a 2 mL sample vial, then analyzed by HPLC. The

155

injection volume of each simples was 10 µL. Each sample was analyzed in duplicate.

156

The MS spectrum was equipped with an ESI source. The operating parameters were

157

shown in the following conditions: ions spray voltage 5500 V, capillary voltage 40 V

158

and capillary temperature 250℃.22-24 Mass spectra within a mass range of 100~2000

159

m/z were acquired in the positive ion mode. The compositions of polyglycerols were

160

identified by measuring their m/z values.

161

Determination of physical and chemical properties of the PGFEs

162

The morphological and olfactory characteristics of the synthesized PGFEs were

163

investigated. The acid value (AV), saponification value (SV), iodine value (IV),

164

melting point (MP) of the PGFEs according to the National Standard of China. All

165

determinations were carried out in duplicate and the average values were reported.

166

Evaluation of emulsifying properties

167

Emulsions preparation

168

Rice bran oil and distilled water (mass ratio of 1: 9) were mixed together, then the

169

newly synthesized PGFE products and monoglyceride with different concentrations

170

(0.01 wt%, 0.05 wt%, 0.1 wt%, 0.3 wt%, 0.5 wt%, 1 wt% of the total oil and water

171

mass) were added. The mixture was heated and stirred in a water bath at 50℃ for 30

172

minutes, and then a high speed homogenizer was used to produce the mixture to

173

emulsions.

174

Particle-size analysis of the emulsions

175

The particle-size of the emulsions was analyzed according to the method reported by

ACS Paragon Plus Environment

Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry

176

Li et al.,25 Briefly, a Malvern Mastersizer 2000 was used to determine the droplet size

177

of the emulsions using static multi-angle light scattering analysis in triplicate.

178

Emulsion stability test

179

Storage stability: the emulsions (10 mL) were decanted into glass test tubes and then

180

placed at room temperature. The final volume of emulsions at 1 min, 10 min, 30 min,

181

1 h,1 day,1 week was recorded, respectively.

182

Centrifugal stability: the emulsions (10 mL) were added in a centrifuge tube and then

183

centrifuged for 10 min at 4200 rpm/min. The final volume of emulsions in the

184

centrifuge tube was recorded.

185

Thermal processing: the emulsions (10 mL) were transferred into glass test tubes, and

186

incubated in water baths set at temperatures ranging from 30 to 80℃ for 30 min, and

187

then cooled to room temperature. The final volume of emulsions in the glass test tubes

188

was recorded.

189

The stability of each emulsion (ES) was determined as follows:

190

ES =

191

Where V0 was the initial volume, and V was the final volume.

192

Statistical analysis

193

All measurements were performed in duplicate and reported as means and standard

194

deviations. Analyses of variance were performed, and the mean values±standard

195

deviation were evaluated by Duncan’s multiple-range test, using SPSS version 13.0

196

statistical software (SPSS Inc., Chicago, IL, USA). A p-value of Te>Sr.

235

The second-order model equation for the EE (Y, %) was as follows:

236

Y=66.07+3.68A-2.13B+9.85C-0.31AB+0.43AC-0.44BC-4.45A2-4.18B2-9.59C2

237

Where Y, the EE; A, the temperature; B, molar ratio of polyglycerol/rice bran acid;

238

and C, enzyme dosage.

239

Optimization of the reaction

240

The effect of the interaction between the reaction temperature, the molar ratio of the

241

substrate, and the enzyme dosage on the esterification rate is shown in Figure 2. The

ACS Paragon Plus Environment

Page 12 of 38

Page 13 of 38

Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry

242

order of influence of the factors on the esterification rate is BC>AC>AB. The optimal

243

conditions for the synthesis of L-PGFEs by Lipozyme 435 were predicted by

244

Design-Expert software. When esterification was catalyzed by Lipozyme 435 under

245

the optimal conditions (temperature, 85℃; time, 6 h; enzyme dosage, 1.4 wt%; molar

246

ratio of polyglycerol/rice bran oil fatty acid, 1.35), the predicted EE based on the

247

model was 69.82%. The small deviation between the optimal conditions and those

248

local optimal ranged was possibly due to the interaction effects of various

249

experimental factors (Figure 2). To further verify the reliability of the regression

250

model, three independent experiments were performed at the predicted optimum

251

conditions, and the actual EE was 69.37±0.12%, proving the high accuracy of the

252

RSM model used. In addition, polyglycerol esters were synthesized by using

253

Cinnamomum camphora seed oil and acetic acid under the same conditions, and

254

finally polyglycerol ester products with average esterification rate of 67.34% and

255

71.68% were obtained, respectively.

256

Composition of the PGFEs product determined by HPLC-ELSD and ESI-MS

257

The newly synthesized PGFE products were determined by HPLC-ELSD (Figure 3).

258

The retention time in the reversed-phase HPLC mode increased as longer fatty acid

259

chains were attached to polyglycerol.27 The HPLC analysis showed that the PGFE

260

products could be divided into the following three groups of peaks, i.e. polyglycerol

261

mono-esters, di-esters and tri-esters, which meant that the major components of

262

L-PGFEs and M-PGFEs were mono-esters and di-esters with a small amount of

263

triglycerides. While the products of S-PGFEs contained the main components of

ACS Paragon Plus Environment

Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry

264

mono-esters with a small amount of di-esters.28

265

To further identify the PGFE products, the HPLC-ESI-MS in a positive ion mode was

266

employed to analyze the products. As shown in Table 3, the composition of L-PGFEs

267

was mainly dimeric glycerides and triglycerides such as [oleic acid+ dimeric glycerol

268

mono Ester + Na] + and [linoleic acid + triglyceride monoester + Na] + etc. M-PGFE

269

product was similar to L-PGFE product. Also, the polyglycerol ester product also

270

detected the formation of water adducts, such as [capric acid + tetraglycerol

271

monoester + Na + 4H2O], which might be due to the presence of hydroxyl groups and

272

water molecules to form hydrogen bonds.29 However, S-PGFEs were mostly

273

polyglycerol and monoesters. From the results, it could be concluded that the

274

esterification reaction product of enzymatic synthesis of polyglycerol ester was

275

mainly monoester and di-ester, and only some esterification reaction occurred due to

276

the steric hindrance effects.30

277

Characterization of the PGFEs

278

The physicochemical properties of the PGFE products were observed. As shown in

279

Table 4, PGFEs are both light yellow and transparent, while L-PGFEs are waxy solid,

280

M-PGFEs are semi-solid, and S-PGFEs show jelly Shaped semi-solid, compared with

281

the mono-glyceride as a white powder solid.

282

Determination of particle size of PGFE emulsions

283

In the current study, these PGFE products were further tested for the capability of

284

emulsification in order to exam whether PGFEs can be as an emulsifier applied in the

285

food industry. The particle size and distribution of the same concentration of PGFE

ACS Paragon Plus Environment

Page 14 of 38

Page 15 of 38

Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry

286

emulsions were prepared. As shown in Figure 4, the average particle size of the

287

L-PGFE emulsions and the M-PGFE emulsions decreased greatly to 16.8 nm and 28.7

288

nm, respectively when the dosage was at 0.3%. While particle size of the emulsions

289

prepared by S-PGFEs and GMS did not change significantly with the increase of the

290

dosage of emulsifiers, which particle sizes fluctuated at 2000 nm and 450 nm,

291

respectively. The results showed that the S-PGFE emulsions could not form the

292

interfacial film on the surface of the dispersed droplet. It should be mentioned that the

293

GMS emulsions showed poor performance in the oil-in-water emulsions at the

294

oil-to-water ratio of 1: 9, probably due to their little lipophilic contribution. In

295

addition, the emulsions prepared by L-PGFEs had a smaller particle size than the

296

other emulsions prepared at the same dosage. This might be due to the fact that the

297

HLB value of L-PGFE emulsions was larger than that of M-PGFE emulsions (data

298

not shown) due to the difference in the fatty acids of the synthetic ester and more

299

lipophilic contribution, therefore formed more stable oil-in-water emulsions. The

300

emulsion droplets in the system were not easy to aggregate and form small particle.

301

Analysis of emulsion stability

302

The storage stability of the four kinds of emulsions with different dosage of emulsifier

303

were shown in Figure 5. The storage stabilities of the emulsions with L-PGFEs and

304

M-PGFEs could be significantly improved with the increase of PGFEs concentrations.

305

When the dosage was less than 0.1%, only a small amount of stratification was

306

observed after standing for 10 min, and the storage stability of the emulsions

307

decreased but not significant. After 1 hour, the emulsions reached a steady stage,

ACS Paragon Plus Environment

Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry

308

probably due to the amount of emulsifier too small to completely reduce the surface

309

tension of the emulsion droplets in the oil droplets re-coalescence. When the dosage

310

was more than 0.1%, the emulsions stood for 1 week without any separation,

311

indicating that the emulsifiers were enough to reduce the surface tension of the

312

emulsions.31 It can be concluded that when the mass ratio of rice bran oil to distilled

313

water was 1: 9, the excellent stability of emulsions could be produced with adding the

314

minimum dosage of L-PGFEs and M-PGFEs (0.1%). In addition, it can be observed

315

that the stability of emulsions with L-PGFE was slightly better than that of emulsions

316

with M-PGFE at the same dosages. On the other hand, the stability of emulsions with

317

S-PGFE and GMS were not stable, and the separation of oil-water two phases

318

occurred within 1 min after the preparation of the emulsions. The disability of GMS

319

emulsions was much more obvious. These were consistent with the results of the

320

above formula of emulsion particles, and these two kinds of emulsifiers are poor to

321

prepare emulsions.

322

The stabilities of four kinds of emulsions with different concentrations of PGFEs

323

could be easily observed in Figure 6 storing for 1 week at room temperature. The

324

stability of the emulsions was as follows: L-PGFE emulsions> M-PGFE emulsions>

325

S-PGFE emulsions> GMS emulsions. Meanwhile, the centrifugal and thermal

326

stabilities of emulsions with PGFEs and GMS at different dosages are shown in

327

Figure 7. The centrifugal stabilities of the emulsions prepared by these PGFEs

328

increased with increasing the dosage of emulsifier. When the dosage of emulsifiers

329

was less than 0.1%, the emulsions were separated to some extent. When the emulsifier

ACS Paragon Plus Environment

Page 16 of 38

Page 17 of 38

Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry

330

dosage increased gradually, the emulsions prepared by L-PGFEs and M-PGFEs did

331

not show significant oil-water separation after centrifugation, probably due to that the

332

emulsions could overcome the centrifugal force when the amount of emulsifier was

333

sufficient. When the dosage of emulsifier added to 1%, the centrifugal stabilities of

334

emulsions with S-PGFEs and GMS were far less than those of L-PGFE and M-PGFE

335

emulsions, respectively. The similar trends were also found in the thermal stabilities

336

of these emulsions (Figure 7B). Under the same conditions, the emulsions prepared by

337

L-PGFEs and M-PGFEs showed excellent thermal stability with no any oil-water

338

separation until 90℃, while the emulsions prepared by S-PGFE showed more obvious

339

separation after 70℃. The stability of the emulsions prepared by GMS was the worst,

340

and the oil and water were completely separated at 80℃.

341

Conclusively, in the current study, enzymatic synthesis of polyglycerol fatty acid

342

esters (PGFEs) with different long-chain fatty acids was studied in a solvent-free

343

reaction system. The highest EEs of L-PGFEs (69.37%), M-PGFEs (67.34%) and

344

S-PGFEs (71.68%) were achieved, respectively, under the optimal reaction conditions:

345

85℃, 6 h, enzyme dosage of 1.4 wt%, the molar ratio of polyglycerol/oilsof 1.35:1.

346

The PGFEs compositions were further identified as main three PGFEs, di-meric

347

glycerides (68.3%), tri-glycerides (13.13%), and a small amount of tetra-glycerides

348

(3.18%). Among these PGFEs, L-PGFEs showed the best physical and chemical

349

properties with no obvious odors. Meanwhile, L-PGFEs showed the best performance

350

in the preparation of oil-water emulsions whether in storage stability, centrifugal

351

stability and thermal stability, compared with M-PGFEs, S-PGFEs as well as GMS.
