Influence of microbial infestation of rapeseed on the sensorial quality of cold-pressed rapeseed oil
Project
Project code: MRI-GE-08-15-01
Contract period: 01.08.2014
- 31.12.2016
Purpose of research: Applied research
Unfavourable storage and harvesting conditions of rapeseed can lead to negative effects on the sensory quality of cold-pressed rapeseed. Responsible for the formation of these volatile and non-volatile aroma active compounds are metabolic processes within the rapeseed by enzymatic reactions, or of different bacteria and fungi that are found on the surface of the seeds. The proposed work is intended to give an indication how the microbial infestation of rapeseed influences the formation of undesirable off-flavors. An important aspect is the influence of type and composition of the microbial infestation on the sensorial quality and the profile of volatile aroma active compounds of cold-pressed rapeseed oil.
