Abstract

Oxidative stability of horse fat rendered at 70 °C, − 0.1 MPa under vacuum and 110 °C, 0.1 MPa from horse fatty tissues was investigated after the addition of α-tocopherol at 0, 30, 60, and 150 mg/kg during storage at 60 °C in the dark. Peroxide values of initial horse fat rendered at 70 °C under vacuum ranged from 6.10 to 7.40 meq/kg. After 14 days, those of horse fat with α-tocopherol at 0, 30, 60, and 150 mg/kg increased to 142.40, 34.10, 39.37, and 58.23 meq/kg, respectively. Acid values and thiobarbituric acid values of horse fat rendered at 70 °C were lower than those of horse fat at 110 °C. Unsaturated fatty acids contents of horse fat rendered at 70 °C and 110 °C were 58.04 and 57.15%, respectively. These results indicate that rendering at 70 °C under vacuum improved the oxidative stability of horse fat and the addition of α-tocopherol helped to prevent lipid oxidation.
