a b s t r a c t Comparative studies of enzymatic degumming process of rapeseed oil were carried out in mechanicalstirring and ultrasonic-assisted mechanical-stirring systems. The influences of enzyme dosage (10–50 mg/kg), pH (4.5–6), temperature (45–65 °C), water amount (1–3%), ultrasonic power (0.06– 0.09 W/cm3) and reaction time were investigated subsequently. A suitable ultrasonic power of 0.07 W/ cm3 was determined to guarantee satisfactory degumming efficiency and enzyme activity. Compared to the mechanical-stirring system, optimum temperature of phospholipase A (PLA) in the ultrasonicassisted mechanical-stirring system was about 5 °C higher, while the effects of pH on both of the two systems were quite similar. Less time and water were used in the ultrasonic-assisted mechanical-stirring system for enzymatic degumming. The study on the quality changes of degummed oils showed that ultrasound could accelerate the oxidation of edible oils due to the effect of cavitation, thus more attention should be paid on the oxidative stability in the further application.

1. Introduction Rapeseed is one of the most important oilseed crops and a major source of edible vegetable oil in China. The planting area of the rapeseed is about 6.7 million hectares, and the total yield is about 12 million tons, accounting for 20% of the world’s supply [1]. To obtain edible vegetable oils from oil-bearing seeds such as soybean, rapeseed, peanut or sunflower, various refining operations are required. Degumming is the first step in the refining process of vegetable oils, which removes phospholipids and mucilaginous gums. The presence of substantial amounts of phospholipids can cause oil discoloration and serve as a precursor of off-flavors. Therefore, the removal of nearly all of the phospholipids is essential for the production of high-quality finished oil [2]. Traditional degumming processes, including water degumming, super-degumming, total degumming, acid treatment, etc., cannot guarantee the achievement of low phosphorus contents ( 0.05), but showed a significantly higher value compared with crude oil, increasing from about 3.24 mmol/kg to about 4.20 mmol/kg (P 6 0.05). It meant that the crude oil was partially oxidized during the enzymatic degumming process. Compared to the crude oil, metal ions (Fe, Ca and Mg) in both of the two enzymatic degumming systems were significantly decreased in combination with the removal of phospholipids. It is well know that the removal of metal ions would improve the oxidative stability of degummed oil, because the existence of the metal ions, such as Fe, was a promoter for the automatic oxidation of oil. However, in our study, the oxidative stability of crude rapeseed oil was better than that of degummed oils with different kinds of degumming treatments (P 6 0.05), which might be explained that phospholipids were a kind of natural antioxidants and could postpone the rate of oil oxidation [19]. In addition, compared to the sole mechanical-stirring treatment, ultrasonic treatment could further reduce the oxidative stability of the degummed oil. The result was in compliance with other researchers to some extent, indicating that ultrasound treatment could accelerate the oxidation of edible oils [20]. The ultrasonic oxidation of degummed oil might be attributed to the effect of cavitation. Metals which existed naturally in edible oils, in combination with ultrasound cavitation, could be suspected as a possible responsible for the formation of oxy-radical species to induce the oxidation of rapeseed oils. 4. Conclusion The present study showed that ultrasonic-assisted treatment could accelerate the enzymatic reaction rate and enhance the enzymatic degumming efficiency of rapeseed oil. Both the optimum temperature and inactivation temperature of PLA under ultrasound irradiation were higher than those without ultrasound treatment. The treatment of ultrasound did not change the pH-pattern of PLA, and less water was required to saturate the substrates under ultrasonic-assisted mechanical-stirring system. Quality analysis of the degummed oils showed that ultrasonic-assisted treatment did not significantly change the PV value of degummed rapeseed oil (P > 0.05), which meant that the rate of primary

oxidation did not change a lot compared with sole-mechanicalstirring treatment. However, evaluation of oxidative stability under Rancimat accelerated oxidation condition showed that ultrasound treatment could accelerate the oxidation of edible oils due to the effect of cavitation. These results indicate that ultrasound could be an effective way to reduce the time, water and enzyme dosage used in PLA degumming process, but more attention should be paid on oxidative stability of oils in further application.
