Abstract
Whelks Neptunea arthritica cumingi Crosse and Neverita didyma were processed by hot air drying and changes of thei lipids and the mechanism involved were evaluated by analyzing peroxide value, thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances, total oxidation value, fatty acid composition, activities of lipases and lipoxygenase (LOX), as well as contents of triacylglycerol (TAG), free fatty acid (FFA), phosphatidylcholine (PC) and phosphatidylethanolamine (PE). The processing significantly decreased the contents of PC, PE and TAG but increased the content of FFA. The presence of acid lipase and phospholipase in whelk tissues and their activity preservation during processing suggest that the enzymes may help hydrolyze lipids. By contrast, the reduction of PC, PE and TAG was more pronounced than the increase in FFA in whelk tissues upon processing, indicating the oxidative degradation of FFA. LOX may play a role in lipid oxidation due to the stability of the starting components during processing.
