  • Does branded soybean oil contain trans-fat?
  • Two-thirds of branded soybean oil samples exceeded WHO defined TFA limit of 2%. Soybean oil may contribute up to one-third of daily maximum limit of TFA intake. The study aimed to determine the trans-fat content in branded and unbranded soybean oil (SBO) and palm oil (PO) in nationally representative samples of Bangladesh.
  • How much saturated fatty acid is in branded soybean oil?
  • Total saturated fatty acid (SFA) in branded soybean oil ranged from 9.87 % to 16.6 % and 13.83 % to 33.8 % in unbranded soybean oil, having a mean of 20.59 %. The mean SFA content differed significantly between branded and unbranded soybean oil (brand vs. unbranded: 15.1% vs. 20.6 %, p <0.001).
  • What is the major fatty acid composition of soybean and palm oil?
  • Major fatty acid composition The major fatty acid composition of soybean and palm oil is presented in Table 1. Total saturated fatty acid (SFA) in branded soybean oil ranged from 9.87 % to 16.6 % and 13.83 % to 33.8 % in unbranded soybean oil, having a mean of 20.59 %.
  • Which chromatogram shows a high trans-fat level in soybean oil?
  • In the chromatogram of the soybean oil, oleic acid [C18:1, 9c] and methyl linoleate [C18:2, 9c12c] were the most significant peaks. Supplementary figure 3d showed the TIC of soybean oil containing significant levels of trans-fats.
  • Which fatty acids are higher branded or unbranded soybean oil?
  • The average total monounsaturated (MUFA) and polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) were significantly ( p <0.001) higher in the branded than unbranded soybean oil (MUFA: 26.84 % and 33.41 %; PUFA: 50.6 % and 37.4 % respectively).
  • What is hydrogenated Soyabean oil?
  • Hydrogenated soyabean oil is the product obtained by refining, bleaching, hydrogenation and deodorisation of oil obtained from seeds of Glycinesoja Sieb. Glycine max (L.)Merr. (G.hispida). Soyabean oil is a vegetable oil extracted from the seeds of the soybean.
