introduction | propyl gallate (PG), also known as propyl gallate, is a synthetic oil-soluble antioxidant. Oil-soluble antioxidants are all phenolic compounds. In addition to PG, they also include butyl hydroxyanisole (BHA), dibutyl hydroxytoluene (BHT), tert-butyl hydroquinone (TBHQ), etc., which can provide hydrogen atoms Combine with the free radicals produced by the automatic oxidation of oil to form a relatively stable structure, blocking the chain automatic oxidation process of oil and fat, thereby achieving the purpose of oxidation resistance. |
Properties | Propyl gallate is white to light brown crystalline powder, or milky white needle crystal. Odorless, slightly bitter, aqueous solution tasteless. Sublimation at high temperature, soluble in ethanol, propanol, ether, chloroform, slightly soluble in water. It interacts with copper and iron ions to produce purple or dark green. PG is hardly soluble in water, slightly soluble in cotton seed oil, peanut oil and lard. The PH value of its 0.25% aqueous solution is about 5.5. Propyl gallate is relatively stable. It reacts with metal ions such as copper and iron to turn purple or dark green. It is hygroscopic, unstable to light, decomposes, and has poor high temperature resistance. |
uses | propyl gallate is widely used in food industry and pharmaceutical preparations. it is an excellent oil antioxidant, used in cosmetics and as an inhibitor for anti-ultraviolet radiation. PG is also allowed to use feed antioxidants in China and widely used abroad. China's regulations can also be used for edible oils, fried foods, biscuits, instant noodles, quick-cooked rice, canned nuts, dried fish products and cured meat products, with a maximum use of 0.1 g/kg. PG has stronger antioxidant capacity on lard than BHA or BHT, and when mixed with BHA or BHT, synergist is the strongest antioxidant effect. The antioxidant effect of single-pair flour products is not as strong as BHA and BHT. PG is also an oil-soluble antioxidant allowed in China and widely used abroad. PG has stronger antioxidant capacity on lard than BHA or BHT, and when mixed with BHA and BHT, synergist is the strongest antioxidant effect. However, the antioxidant effect on flour products is not as strong as BHA and BHT. China's regulations can be used for edible oils, fried foods, biscuits, instant noodles, quick-cooked rice, canned nuts, dried fish products and cured meat products, with a maximum use of 0.1 g/kg. testing of food oil additives. Antioxidants for food, fat, oils, ethers, emulsions, waxes, transformer oils, etc. used as an antioxidant additive in fat, fat-containing food and pharmaceutical preparations; used as an anti-quenching agent in fluorescence microscopy to reduce photobleaching of fluorescent probes such as rodanming and fluorescein an effective, antioxidant-like liver protector in vitro and in vivo. Used as an anti-quencher in fluorescence microscopy to reduce photobleaching of fluorescent probes such as rodanmin and fluorescein. Used as a food antioxidant This product is a food and feed additive. Used as a pit oxidant for oil, lard, etc., it has strong antioxidant effect, but it has the disadvantage of color, and the dosage is below 0.1 g/kg. When used as a feed antioxidant, the maximum dosage is 100ppm. It can also be used in cosmetics. The oral LD50 of rats is 3.8 g/kg. |
identification test | solubility is hardly soluble in water; Soluble in ethanol, ether and propylene glycol. Measured according to OT-42 method. The melting range is 146~150 ℃. The sample was dried at 110 ℃ for 4 h. Gallic acid test takes about 0.5g of sample, dissolves it in 10 ml.1mol/L sodium hydroxide, boils it under nitrogen flow for 30min, then cools it, and carefully acidifies it to pH = 2~3 with 2mol/L sulfuric acid. The precipitate was filtered out by a sintered glass crucible, washed with a small amount of water and dried at 110 ℃ for 2 hours. The melting point of the resulting gallic acid crystal is about 240°C (which decomposes with it). |
content analysis | accurately weigh about 0.2g of dry sample, put it into a 400ml beaker, add 150ml of water and boil it. Under continuous vigorous stirring, add 50ml of bismuth nitrate test solution (II)(TS-43) and continue stirring for several minutes until the precipitate is completely formed and then cool to room temperature. The yellow precipitate is filtered out with a sintered glass crucible of constant weight. The precipitate is first washed with 0.05mol/L cold nitric acid, and then washed with ice water until it is acid-free. It was then dried to constant weight at 110°C.
