Abstract: The oxidation of polyunsaturated fatty acids(PUFA)in emulsion with stirring and limited oxygen compensation was studied.A mathematical model of diffusion-oxidation was developed considering the mass transfer resistance of a gasliquid boundary,the resistance of the boundary layer from the emulsifier membrane,and the autocatalytictype autoxidation reaction of PUFA.The dynamic mass transfer coefficient of the emulsifier membrane,k0,was introduced.The model was verified by comparing the predictions of the model with the experimental data.The results indicated that the model was in good agreement with the oxygen diffusion and linoleic acid oxidation in the emulsion,and showed good applicability in the prediction of the effect of the emulsifier type on the oxidation of PUFA in the emulsion.It indicated that the oxidation of PUFA in emulsions,with stirring and limited oxygen compensation from the atmosphere,was controlled mostly by mass transfer resistance from the emulsifier membrane.

Key words: polyunsaturated fatty acids oxidation, emulsion, mathematical model, limited oxygen compensation
