Abstract

Abstract: Cereal lipids are useful as an additive to dough in baking bread.
It is desired that such cereal lipids shall contain polar lipids, whereas non-polar lipids are not desired.
Polar lipids may be separated from non-polar lipids by mixing the cereal lipids with water, subjecting the mixture to gravity separation to form two oily phases and an inter-mediate aqueous phase, and separat-ing the heaviest oily phase which contains the major portion of the polar lipids.

Description

" 11~2~795 The invention relates to a method for isolating polar cereal lipids from a mixture of polar and non-polar cereal lipids. The mixture of polar and non-polar lipids intended here is a lipid mixture such as can be recovered from cereals using known methods, Thus, wheat contains about 2% lipids, of which approximately half are polar, such as phospholipids and galactolipids, and half are non-polar~ primarily triglycerides.
These lipids can be recovered, e.g. by the extraction of flour with an organic solvent, or by centrifuging a flour-water--mixture. An effective extraction agent is water-saturated butanol, which has the ability of releasing the lipids from the flour to about 80%. Other useful extraction agents are chloroform, benzene-chloroform in a ratio of 1:1~ ethanol, ethanol-water with up to 90% water, and ethanol-diethylether--water in the ratio of 2:2:1. In the production of wheat starch there is obtained a residue of water-soluble proteins, gluten and lipids. From this residue the lipids can be isolated by extraction. Other cereals which can provide a lipid mixture useful as starting material for the invention are rye, triti-cale, barley oats and maize.
The product of polar lipids obtained according to theinvention is primarily intended to be used as an additive to foodstuffs. The product can with advantage replace the emul-gators now used in baking, e.g. stearyl-lactyl-lactate salts, tartaric ac;d esters and monoglycerides. They give the bread an improved cereal aroma and an increased volume, as well as an improved texture and storage ability. The good effect in baking of the polar cereal lipids is previously known, e.g. from Mac Ritchie, J. Sci. Fd Agric., 28, (1977), 53-58. Other uses are as an additive to starch-based foodstuffs, such as pastes,

mashed potatoes, gruel, where the product gives the foodstuff a shorter texture. The inventlon relates to the removal ofnon-polarlipids from the total extract, since these counteract the desired effects in said products.
It is therefore desirable that the isolation of the polar lipids is so effective that these will contain at most 25 percent by weight of non-polar lipids.
The present invention provides a method for isolating polar lipids from a mix~ure of polar and non-polar cereal lipids comprising mixing the lipid mixture with water to such an amount that the lipid-water mixture contains at least 50 percent by weight of water, subjecting the mixture to a gravity separation of at least about 5000 g at a temperature in the range between about 25 to 50C until the phaseshave completely separated, and separating the heaviest oily phase obtained from the gr~vity separation, said phase containing the major portion of the polar lipids.
According to the invention, water preferably distilled water, is added to the lipid mixture, in such a quantity that the lipid-water mixture contains at least 50 percent by weight of water. We have found that 70 per-cent by weight of water is a suitable water content. If the water content is greater than 80 percent by weight, the volume of the mixture will be so large that there will be difficulties in the gravitational separation. The temp-erature of the mixture is preferably kept higher than 25C so that the desired phase will have a suitable consistency for handling. However, the temperature is preferably less than 50C to avoid fat oxidation. Phase equilibrium is achieved after 3-6 hours. The mixture is now subjected to gravity separation, preferably in a centrifugal separator. The centrifugal separation should be continued until two oily phases have been formed, separated by an aqueous phase. We prefer to centrifuge at least at 5000 g, which requires approximately 1-2 ~.~

~2795 hours for a complete separation of the phases. ~ complete sepa-ration can be achieved in approximately 20-30 minutes if the speed of the separator is increased to 10 000 g. The uppermost, lightest phase is an oil which is almost entirely composed of non-polar lipids primarily triglycerides but also minor quanti-ties of fatty acids, diglycerides and sterol esters. Under this phase there is a pure water phase. The undermost, heaviest phase is a mildly yelly-coloured oily phase containing the desired polar lipids. ~e have found, by means of thin layer chromato-graphy, that this phase mainly consists of galactolipids (mainlydigalactodiglycerides and a minor quantity of monogalactodigly-cerides) and phospholipids, subh as lecithin and lysolacithin.
Surprisingly, we have found that this phase contains a high con-tent of water, namely about 50-70 percent by weight, depending on the quantity of water added. In spite of this, the phase is not water-miscible. The heavy oil phase consists of a dispersion .... _ . .. .. . .. . ..... . . ....... .. . . . . . .. . .
of a lamellar liquid-chrystalline phase in a so-called L2-phase.
The L2-phase has been extensively studied in simple systems like sodium caprylate-decanol-water, and is often described as an in-versed micellar state, with water molecule aggregates in a con-tinuous hydrocarbon environment.

The content of non-polar lipids in the oily phase contain-ing the polar lipids can be reduced somewhat, e.g. from 25 to 10 percent by weight, if salt is added to the water which is
3 added to the lipid extract. The salt content of the water is suitably 0 4 - 4 percent by weight, and the salt is suitably a halogen salt of an alkali metal.

lipids in bal~ -A._ _ro(ll_t;on of lip;ds _om wheat flour.
10 kg of wheat flour was mixed in a mixer with 40 kg water-saturated butanol. The mixer was run for 2 hours. The temperature of the mixture was 20-25C. The mixture was trans-ferred to a centrifugal separator and centrifu~ed at 1800 g for one hour, after which time about 35 liters of liquid was - obtained. The liquid was evaporated by heating at 50C, and a dry residue weighing about 16~ g was obtained. With regard to use in foodsturfs it is important that the evaporation is com-plete, so that no organic solvent remains in the lipid mixture.
B. Isolation of polar lipids.
300 g of a lipid mixture of the kind produced according to step A was mixed with 700 g distilled water and agitated un-til an apparently homogenous mixture was obtained. The mixture was allowed to stand for 4 hours at 30C without stirring. It was subsequently transferred to a centrifugal separator and centrifuged at 5~00 g for 1 hour. Two oily phases were obtained, separated by a water stratum. The heaviest oily phase was sepa-rated and was found to have a volume of 750 ml and a water con-tent of 70 %.
C Baking.
Baking experiments were carried out according to the standardized method prescribed by the Swedish Seed Association, Or Svalov ? Sweden. The w~leat f]our was a so-called bakery mix-ture produced by the Swedish milling Iirm of Kungsornen. The fermenting and bakin~ ovens used were made by the British firm of Simons. The polar wheat lipids produced according to step B
were added to an amount of 0.83 percent by weight of the amount of flour. For comparison~ bread was baked (1) with an equally large addition of sodium stearyl-lactyl-lactate, and (2) with-. . ., . ~ .. . ... . . . _ . .. _ -. .

It is well known that the addition of a con-ventional emulgator reduces the elasticity of the crumb, which was very clearly demonstrated by our comparative experiment. The polar wht?at lipitls gave no such bad effects, but produced a superior elasticity of the crumb.
