옥수수유를 $175{pm}5^{circ}C$에서 가열처리(15회)하여 가열 전과 트랜스지방산의 함량변화를 살펴본 결과, 0.292 g/100g에서 2.585 g/100g로 2.293 g/100g의 증가를 보였다. 15회 한 옥수수유를 방치(150일) 한 후 트랜스지방산의 함량변화를 살펴본 결과, 2.585 g/100g에서 3.683 g/100g로 1.098 g/100g의 증가를 나타냈고 1회 섭취하는 총 트랜스지방산의 함량(tFAs(g)/Serving size)은 0.01 g에서 0.18 g으로 0.17 g의 섭취량 증가를 나타냈다. 트랜스지방산의 이성체별 함량변화를 살펴보면, C18:2t, C18:3t보다 C18:1t가 가열횟수가 증가할수록 큰 폭으로 증가하는 것을 알 수 있었다.
Trans fatty acid components separated and quantified using a SP-2560 capillary column in a gas chromatograph (GC) with flame ionization detector (FID). Trans fatty acid and total fatty acid contents were measured in 21 corn oils. Ranges of values for trans fatty acid (tFAs) contents of total fat (as g/100g fatty acids) were com oils $0.65{pm}0.31$. Corn oils were heated at $175{pm}5^{circ}C$ for 5mins $(0{sim}15;times)$. The contents of tFAs (g/100) were increased from 0.292 (0 time) to 2.585 (15 times) in com oil. When frying oils (15 times) were incubated at $20{pm}5^{circ}C$ for 150 days, the contents of tFAs (g/100g) were increased from 2.585 to 3.683 in com oil. The amounts of tFAs (g) per serving size of frying oils (15 times) were increased from 0.01 to 0.18 in corn oil. The levels of the 18:1 trans isomers increased significantly the time of reusing of com oil.
