To evaluate the relationship between acid degree value and rancid off-flavor, milk samples were supplemented with varying concentrations of selected fatty acids. Recovery of added fatty acids into fat phase was influenced by level of supplementation and chain length. Short-chain fatty acids (C 4 to C 8 ) when added to milk at concentrations ≤.55 μmol/ml did not enter the fat phase recovered by acid degree value procedure in quantities comparable with those of similarly added medium- (C 10 to C 16 ) or long-chain (C 18:0 to C 18:1 ) fatty acids (.56 vs. 2.14 or 3.68 μmol FFA/g of fat). Except for C 4 , percentage recovery into the fatty phase tended to increase with increased rate of supplementation. Gas chromatographic procedures documented that chain length affected partitioning of fatty acids into the recovered fat phase. Long- and medium-chain fatty acids contributed more to the acid degree value than short-chain fatty acids because their hydrophobic nature resulted in their greater presence in the recovered fat. Flavor detection threshold for C 4 was low relative to that for C 18:1 (.20 vs. .55 μmol/ml). Capric acid (C 10 ) could not be detected at ≤.55 μmol/ml. Results indicate that acid degree value does not measure the short-chain fatty acids, which contribute to the threshold sensory detection of rancid off-flavor. |
