Analytical Methods for
Determining Composition
Mayonnaise
Total: solids, fats, nitrogen, phosphorous,
acidity
Egg content, Emulsion stability, Specific Wt.,
Gums by Copper Reduction
Margarine
Moisture, Fat, Salt
Basic Emulsion Theory
• Homogenous mixture of oil
and water stabilized by an
emulsifier
• Two classifications
– Macroemulsionsthermodynamically unstable
– Microemulsionsthermodynamically stable
• Interfacial tension
• Net interaction between
dispersed phase
– Addition of van der Waals
and electrostatic forces
Emulsion Theory
• Emulsifiers
– Functionality direct result
of chemistry
– Consists of 2 parts
• Hydrocarbon chain –
lipophilic
• Polar group – hydrophilic
• Three types of emulsions
– Temporary
• Example: oil mixed with
vinegar
– Semi-Permanent
• Example: pourable salad
dressing
– Permanent
• Example: Mayonnaise
Regular Mayonnaise Formulation
• Addition pathway
–
–
–
–
–
Vinegar mixed with emulsifiers
Oil added slowly
Stabilizers and Preservatives
Spices and flavor agents
Results in closely packed foam of oil droplets
• Emulsifiers used
– Lecithin, lipovitellin, livetin (all found in egg yolk)
– Lecithin also in soybean oil
• Major emulsifier: Lecithin
– Functional component: phospholipids
– Phospholipids
• Hydrophilic polar head
• Lipophilic portion consists of 2 lipophilic tails
Regular Mayonnaise Formulation
• Adsorption of lipoprotiens to O/W interface
– Diffusion of native protein molecules to interface
– Penetration of interface by these molecules
– Rearrangement of adsorbed molecules to state of lowest
free energy
• Ideal Emulsions
– Dispersed droplets account for maximum of 74% volume
• Mayonnaise
– Dispersed phase accounts for 75% or more volume
Low-Fat Mayonnaise Formulation
• Same basic addition pathway
• Other ingredients used to achieve low-fat
– Example: egg whites
• Interfacial chemistry problem
– Emulsifiers found in egg yolk not as abundant in whites
• Emulsifiers
– Lecithin
• Added through addition of more soybean oil
– Fine mustard particles
Margarine Formulation
• Thermodynamically unstable – hydrophobic
effects. Continuously change toward equilibrium.
• Flocculation causes increase of viscosity.
• Emulsifiers applied: monoglycerides, lecithin.
• Emulsifiers prevent crystallization, improve
plasticity and creaming texture and increase water
holding ability.
Analytical Methods for
Determining Colloidal Properties
• Rheology provides valuable
information for quality control,
storage ability, sensory
assessment of consistency,
knowledge for design of texture
and unit operation,
• Mayonnaise and margarine
show viscoelastic properties.
• Model developed to describe
the transient flow.
• Rheometrical studies of
mayonnaise has been shown to
be shearing thinning,
viscoelastic and thixotropic.

Conclusions
• Product chemistry and colloid
properties are important in
reducing production cost and to
meet the market demands.
• Total sale in 2000 : $1,292.8
million (margarine), $747.45
million (mayonnaise)
• Regular mayonnaise ~$0.88/lb,
low-fat mayonnaise ~$1.42lb.
• Regular margarine ~ $1.30/lb,
low fat/cholesterol margarine ~
$2.00/lb.
• Flavor plays the biggest role
despite healthiness.
