Influence of oleic acid on the structure of a mixture of hydrated model stratum corneum fatty acids and their soaps

The phase behaviour of a hydrated (32% (w/w) water) mixture of saturated and unsaturated fatty acids and their soaps has been examined. By progressively increasing the proportion of oleic acid, it could be shown that this unsaturated component exists partly as a separate phase within the others. The unsaturated fatty acids form an H_II phase at 25°C, whereas the saturated fatty acids form a fatty acid—soap crystal under the conditions employed. The results help to explain the role played by the fatty acids (and also cholesterol) within the lipid fraction of human stratum corneum. A feature of this study is a comparison of the results obtained by X-ray diffraction, differential scanning calorimetry and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy.

Fatty acid-cyclodextrin complexes: Properties and applications

The complexation of fatty acids (both saturated and unsaturated) with various cyclodextrins and cyclodextrin derivatives greatly modifies their properties. Inclusion complex formation — depending upon the type of host cyclodextrin — may result in protection against the environment, in improved water solubility and bioavailability. Thus lipid complexation enables the preparation of more reliable diagnostic reagents, better chromatographic separations and higher yields in biotechnological processes. The relevant literature is reviewed with particular emphasis on the practical utility of the molecular encapsulation of fatty acids with cyclodextrins.     

Docosahexaenoic acid and eicosapentaenoic acid induce changes in the physical properties of a lipid bilayer model membrane

We investigated the effect of fatty acids such as stearic acid (SA, 18:0), oleic acid (OA, 18:1), eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA, 20:5), and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA, 22:6) on a dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC) bilayer by determining the phase transition temperature, fluorescence anisotropy of 1,6-diphenyl-1,3,5-hexatriene (DPH), and detergent insolubility. Treatment with unsaturated fatty acid broadened and shifted the phase transitions of the DPPC bilayer to a lower temperature. The phase transition temperature and the value of fluorescence anisotropy of DPH at 37 degrees C decreased progressively with increasing treatment amounts of unsaturated fatty acid. A large amount of the DPPC bilayer treated with unsaturated fatty acid was dissolved in Triton X-100, obtaining a low level of detergent insolubility. These modifications of the bilayer physical properties were most pronounced with DHA and EPA treatment. These data show that unsaturated fatty acids, particularly DHA and EPA, induce a marked change in the lipid bilayer structure. The composition of fatty acids in the DPPC bilayer was similar after treatment with various unsaturated fatty acids, suggesting that the different actions of unsaturated fatty acids are attributed to change in the molecular structure (e.g., kinked conformation by double bonds). We further explored the change in physical properties induced by fatty acids dispersed in a water-in-oil-in-water multiple emulsion and found that unsaturated fatty acids acted efficiently on the DPPC bilayer, even when incorporated in emulsion form.     

Mixed Langmuir monolayers of cholesterol and `essential' fatty acids

Langmuir monolayers of cholesterol and various fatty acids, such as stearic, oleic, linoleic, α-linolenic, and arachidonic acids, spread at the air/water interface are investigated. The system of cholesterol and stearic acid is found to be immiscible, with only one collapse, occurring at the same surface pressure for all composition range. However, surface pressure (π) – area (A) isotherms of cholesterol/unsaturated fatty acids show a characteristic course with two collapse states. The pressure of the first collapse varies with the proportion of the components in the mixture, while the second collapse, occurring at the surface pressure characteristic of cholesterol alone, is independent of mole fraction of the investigated fatty acid. The application of the surface phase rule indicates that the unsaturated fatty acids/cholesterol mixtures are miscible up to the surface pressure corresponding to the first collapse. Negative values of the excess free energy of mixing in all composition ranges prove that the mixtures are stable. The interactions existing in mixtures of cholesterol and unsaturated fatty acids possessing even numbers of double bonds are strongest in the lower region of fatty acid proportion, and the results are consistent with the minimum values of the excess free energy of mixing, indicating the most stable mixtures. For cholesterol and unsaturated fatty acids with odd numbers of double bonds the behavior is different, and the strongest interactions occur in both low and high regions of mole fraction of an acid.

Separation of Nile Blue-labelled fatty acids by CE with absorbance detection using a red light-emitting diode

The separation of fatty acids derivatised with Nile Blue (NB) by CE with detection using a red light-emitting diode (LED) was examined. NB was selected as the derivatisation agent due to its high molar absorption coefficient of 76,000 M(-1) cm(-1) at 633 nm, making it well suited for sensitive absorbance detection using a red 635 nm LED. NB-labelled fatty acids were separated by both MEKC using SDS micelles, i-PrOH and n-BuOH and by NACE in a number of solvents including MeOH, EtOH and ACN. The sensitivity of NACE was superior to MEKC, with detection limits of 5x10(-7)-7x10(-7) M obtained for each acid, approximately 20 times lower than the MEKC method. The NACE detection limits are approximately 100 times lower than previous reports on the separation of fatty acids by CE using indirect absorbance detection, ten times lower than using indirect fluorescence detection and are inferior only to those obtained using precapillary derivatisation and direct fluorescence detection. The efficiency of the NACE method was also superior to MEKC and allowed the separation of unsaturated fatty acids to be examined, although it was not possible to baseline-resolve linoleic (C18:2) and linolenic (C18:3) acids in a reasonable time. The method was used to analyse the fatty acid profile of two edible oils, namely sunflower and sesame oils, after alkali hydrolysis, where it was possible to identify both the saturated and unsaturated fatty acids in each sample.

Measurement of polyunsaturated fatty acids of myocardial lipids by high performance liquid chromatography

Summary This report describes a modified method for the separation and analysis of polyunsaturated fatty acids such as 20:4, 20:5, and 22:6, using HPLC. The results show that these fatty acids are well separated from the saturated acids. Since the unsaturated fatty acids elute earlier than saturated acids, and this method does not require the fractionation of free fatty acids using thin layer chromatography, a necessary step for the gas chromatographic analysis, the recoveries of polyunsaturated fatty acids were significantly higher as compared to those from gas chromatography. Furthermore, HPLC and gas chromatographic methods gave identical results for the acyl chain composition of phosphatidylserine. The advantages of using HPLC over gas chromatography in determining the acyl chain composition of free fatty acids and phospholipids are also discussed.

Analysis of the Dynamic Decomposition of Unsaturated Fatty Acids and Tocopherols in Commercial Oils During Deep Frying

The decomposition of unsaturated fatty acids and tocopherols in 10 commercial edible oils during deep frying was investigated. The dominant tocopherol in oils rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) was γ-tocopherol, except for natural perilla oil (δ-tocopherol dominant), and the main tocopherol in oleic acid-rich oils was α-tocopherol. The PUFA-rich oils had higher tocopherol contents than the oleic acid-rich oils. Both the reduction rate of total unsaturated fatty acid (TUFA) and total tocopherol (TToc) were linear with frying time (t). The decomposition rate of TToc is faster than that of TUFA since the slope values obtained from fitting equations (Y?=?k t) k_TToc (1.520–14.483) were obviously larger than for k_TUFA (0.155–0.270). By establishing a dynamic decomposition index, unsaturated fatty acids and tocopherol in oils showed dynamic decomposition over multiple frying cycles. The obtained results showed that decomposition characteristics of oils are related to their fatty acid compositions.

Determination of selected fatty acids in dried sweat spot using gas chromatography with flame ionization detection

A method is described for the determination of fatty acids in dried sweat spot and plasma samples using gas chromatography with flame ionization detection. Plasma and dried sweat spot samples were obtained from a group of blood donors. The sweat was collected from each volunteer during exercise. Sweat was spotted onto collection paper containing butylated hydroxytoluene. Fatty acids were derivatized with acetyl chloride in methanol to form methyl esters of fatty acids. The fatty acids in dried sweat spot samples treated with butylated hydroxytoluene and stored at –20°C were stable for 3 months. Our results indicate that sweat contains, among fatty acids with short chain, also fatty acids with long chain and unsaturated fatty acids. Linear relationships between percentage content of selected fatty acids in dried sweat spot and plasma were observed.

Determination of free fatty acids by capillary zone electrophoresis

Capillary zone electrophoresis was investigated for the separation of free fatty acids as an alternative to well established techniques such as GC or HPLC. The analysis was performed with indirect UV detection in a counterelectroosmotic flow mode using a diethylbarbiturate carrier electrolyte at a pH between 10 and 11 in a mixed aqueous-organic solvent. Separation of saturated and unsaturated fatty acids could be achieved after bromination of the double bonds. Problems with wall adsorption of fatty acids could be overcome by increasing the temperature and using a high concentration of a zwitterionic reagent to inactivate the silica surface. Increased sensitivity could be achieved after preconcentration on alumina. The method was applied to the determination of free fatty acids in dairy products. The advantages compared to traditional methods include short analysis times and simple preparation steps.Dedicated to Univ. Prof. Dr. Karl Winsauer on the occasion of his 70th birthday
