Distribution of Hydroxytyrosol and Hydroxytyrosol Acetate in Olive Oil Emulsions and Their Antioxidant Efficiency

We employed a kinetic method to determine the distributions of the antioxidants hydroxytyrosol (HT) and hydroxytyrosol acetate (HTA) between the oil, aqueous, and interfacial regions of a model food emulsion composed of stripped olive oil, acidic water, and a blend of Tween 80 and Span 80 [hydrophilic–lipophilic balance (HLB) = 8.05] as an emulsifier [...]

Effects of acidity and emulsifier concentration on the distribution of Vitamin C in a model food emulsion

We have analyzed the effects of acidity and emulsifier concentration on the distribution of ascorbic acid or vitamin C (VC) in a model emulsion prepared by mixing octane, acidic (HCl) water and the non-ionic surfactant hexaethyleneglycol monododecyl ether (C12E6). VC is oil insoluble, and only the partition constant between the interfacial and aqueous regions (PWI) is needed to describe its distribution within the emulsion [...]

Temperature and emulsifier concentration effects on gallic acid distribution in a model food emulsion

We determined the effects of emulsifier concentration and temperature on the distribution of gallic acid (GA) in a food-grade emulsion composed of 1:9 vol:vol stripped corn oil, acidic water and Tween 20. The distribution of GA can be defined by the partition constant between the aqueous and the interfacial regions, View the MathML source, which was determined by using a kinetic method and the pseudophase kinetic model [...]

Distribution of Tert-Butylhydroquinone in a Corn Oil/C12E6/Water Based Emulsion. Application of the Pseudophase Kinetic Model

We have determined the distribution of the antioxidant tert-butylhydroquinone, TBHQ, between the oil and interfacial regions of an emulsion composed of stripped corn oil, acidic water and hexaethyleneglycol monododecyl ether, C12E6, by employing a kinetic method based on the reaction between the hydrophobic 16-hexadecylbenzenediazonium ions, 16-ArN2+, and TBHQ [...]

Reactivity of 3-Methylbenzenediazonium ions with Gallic Acid. Kinetics and Mechanism of the Reaction

We investigated the kinetics and mechanism of the reaction between the 3-methylbenzenediazonium ions (3MBD), and gallic acids (=3,4,5-trihydroxybenzoic acid; GA) in aqueous buffer solution under acidic conditions by employing spectrometric, electrochemical, and chromatographic techniques and computational methods [...]

Effects of Temperature and Emulsifier Concentration on α-Tocopherol Distribution in a Stirred, Fluid, Emulsion. Thermodynamics of α-Tocopherol Transfer between the Oil and Interfacial Regions

The combined linear sweep voltammetry (LSV)/pseudophase kinetic model method was used to obtain the first estimates of the free energies, enthalpy, and entropies of transfer of α-tocopherol (TOC) between the oil and interfacial regions of fluid, opaque, emulsions of n-octane [...]

Dediazoniation of 1-naphthalenediazonium tetrafluoroborate in aqueous acid and in micellar solutions

We have measured the rates and product yields of dediazoniation of 1-naphthalenediazonium (1ND) tetrafluoroborate in the presence and absence of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) micellar aggregates by employing a combination of UV–vis spectroscopy and high-performance liquid chromatography [...]

Micellar effects on the reaction between an arenediazonium ion and the antioxidants gallic acid and octyl gallate

The effect of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) micelles on the reaction between the 3-methylbenzenediazonium (3MBD) ion and either the hydrophilic antioxidant gallic acid (GA) or the hydrophobic analogue octyl gallate (OG) have been investigated as a function of pH [...]

Kinetic and Mechanism of the reaction between 4-hexadecylbenzenediazonium ions and vitamin C in emulsions: Further evidence of the formation of diazo ether intermediates in the course of the reaction

The kinetics and mechanism of the reaction between hydrophobic 4-hexadecylarenediazonium ions, 16-ArNmath image and vitamin C, VC, in a model emulsion prepared by mixing octane, acidic (HCl) water and the non-ionic surfactant hexaethyleneglycol monododecyl ether, C12E6, were investigated [...]
