Fully Hydrogenated Rapeseed Oil occurs as a white, waxy, odorless solid that is a mixture of triglycerides. The saturated fatty acids are found in the same proportions that result from the full hydrogenation of fatty acids occurring in natural high erucic acid rapeseed oil. The rapeseed oil is obtained from Brassica juncea,...

Significant differences in fuel standards also exist among different countries (2, 14-18 Table 1). In the European Union (EU), member countries have adopted a standard requiring an iodine value of less than 115 (15, 16), 120 (14), or 125 (18). This iodine value reflects the upper extreme iodine value of canola (low erucic acid rapeseed) oil. The American Society for Testing Measures (ASTM) and Italian National Standards Body (UNI) standards do not include iodine value (2, 17) and thus allow higher iodine value oils such as soy and sunflower.

In the following chapters, examples are cited where fatty acid composition has been modified by biological methods—both traditional and modern. Well-known examples include low-erucic acid rapeseed oil (canola oil) and high-oleic sunflower oil, but attempts to develop oils with modified fatty acid are being actively pursued in many counties—in both academic and industrial laboratories—and substantial developments are likely in the next five to ten years. Some of have been described by the author (Gunstone 2001) and others are cited in the following chapters of this book.

At first, low emcic acid (less than 5%, meanwhile less than 2.5%) cultivars were developed. Later, one was also successful in breeding low glucosinolate varieties, finally yielding so-called double-zero cultivars now almost exclusively sown. In Canada, this rapeseed especially suited for edible purposes is referred to as canola [3]. As erucic acid has been primarily replaced by oleic acid, the fatty acid fraction of low-erucic acid rapeseed oil is composed of 52-66% oleic acid, 17-25% linoleic acid, and 8-11% Hnolenic acid. 

The development of low erucic acid rapeseed oil created an entirely new natural vegetable oil with physical and nutritional properties distinct from all previously known vegetable oils. To distinguish this new oil in the scien-...
